I dont know why someone wouldn't want a cyclo. Have you had the pleasure of using one? For light polishing they are great (after you do the heavy work with the rotary), it is a well balanced, smooth, and reliable machine.

But it's downfall in my eyes are only having one speed and for the price IMHO it's not worth it to be able to only do one or couple things.

Basically its for finishing purposes. I will correct with the rotary and finish with a cyclo for a hologram free finish. The Flex sometimes isnt smooth enough to finish 100% hologram free on soft paints so the Cyclo will be perfect.

Jason it actually can with the right pad and compound, with final polish and polishing pads I would agree with you.
