Hi, used a polishing machine for the first time today and of course I started on a rotary! Practised on an old door and I enjoyed using it and am looking forward to learning more. Thanks to everyone on this website who has posted advice on there own experiences using the rotary because without ye I would have never got the confidence to try machine polishing.
I got on pretty well, all things considered. Sorry ive no pictures.
Even managed to scrub part of the door with a pot brush and got most of the swirls out afterwards which I was very happy with. Smell that comes off the hot door is a bit strange though and I wasnt expecting that!!
Question I have is what the best way to keep control of the machine when it is spinning on the surface?
Basic question I know but I found the pad gripping and going out of control a few times.
I was using #85 with W7000, #80 with W8000 then applied #26 by hand and buffed off with a bonnet on a W8000.
Sorry again I dont have any pics. I'll try again on another door tomorrow and put some pics up.
