Last year I purchased a HF rotary and experimented on the wifes mini van. 6.5 CCS and JW Prime. A little heavy from what I am used to, but all went well. I was proud with my first ever rotary experience. No marring or holigrams! WELL, over the winter months I picked up a Hitachi rotary and the Edge 8" pads. I was lookin to speed up my detailing process, thats all! Honest! Went to work on my Marauder deck lid to remove somewhat heavy scratches with the yellow pad and SIP. Wow, I was fighting the rotary all the time, tried spritzing the pad with pad conditioner but no difference. More polish, no difference and after a few minutes it starts hopping on a regular basis. Never exceeded 1500 RPM. I finally gave up and went back to my Flex and optimum polish with good results. Pad to hard? SIP dried too fast? Pad too big for me to handle?
Your input and help please!
