Thinking about a rotary?

His holgrams must've come from the wool pad. The #7 is nonabrasive so the only thing actually "working" the paint was the pad itself. If anything, the #7 made it act *milder* due to its lubricating oils.



JJ- I'd be a little careful with the weird combos like #7/wool ;) That combo was a lot more, uhm, "normal" back in the day- when all paints were ss and before there were wool pads ;) I did a lot of new car prep with such combos when I was a kid :o
 
Yeh i know it was weird, I just couldnt use any foam pads since I never had a backing plate. But I have a few ideas, I was amazed at how the products responded under more heat.



I couldn't believe how slick sonus paintwork cleanser was. So much more so than PC.



The holograms were definetely from too high a speed and a wool pad. But that was the whole point of todays experiments, to find what caused burning and holograms and how to avoid it when working on real cars.

I don't know what options you have for pads, but Lake Country appears to make the best rotary pads out! Look into the 7.5" Concaved pads, they collect a lot of product and don't sling if used properly. Also, being that they are concaved, there is less service touching the paint and creating heat!

I've got the Makita and think it's a fantastic tool, although I need to find a beater of a car to work on before I have the confidence to unleash it on a client's car.
