Back to using a rotary.

If you use a white pad along with m205 you can get a perfect finish.
What causes holograms is using an aggressive compound and pad.
When doing just one step using the 205 and a white pad it comes out flawless.
Don't get me wrong, it's hard not using my GG6, it does a nice job

If you want to, next time after a white pad and 205, use a 'paint cleaner' polish with a DA polisher and see if it is still hologram free.rops:

Why use the DA?
The rotary will do just fine.

I think he may be referring to removing the polishing oils that M205 leaves behind, to see if the finish is as good as you believe it to be.

This is what I meant. Sorry.

It's a body shop safe product.
If you work the polish well you'll get a flawless finish.

For me the choice was determined by the demographic that I was servicing.

Seems to me that much emphasis is placed on cutting and compound use when referring to this tool but not much discussed about polishing.

IMHO, a DA MF pad cannot come close to the cutting power of a DA and rotary.

Not sure what you're trying to say.....

Polishers (and most other detailing products) are like golf clubs you reach for the best one (and the one you have the most confidence in) after you carefully read the green. New rotary polishers have a larger rpm range (especially on the lower end) than the rotaries or the days of old. Which can help (but completely get rid off ) some of the issues associated with rotary use. As with most detailing tools or products there is no one size fits all. I like and use a rotary and a DA they both have there uses.

I have not used the Rupes but I kind of doubt anything beats a rotary and wool pad on fiberglass. Am I mistaken ?.

:iagree:

Try one and see :xyxthumbs:

The RUPES wouldn't be able to hang with chalky white gel coat IMO

wool pad and a rotary is almost a must when working with gel coats IMO anyway.

Holograms come out fairly easy with a da my man!

I know they do but thats just another step I don't want todo.
