The car was full of swirl marks, RIDS and some deep scratches.
The process was

Menzerna 85RD on 5,5'' LC Black fishing pad with UDM
Sonus paintwork clearness on 5,5'' LC Blue pad with UDM
Nanolex basic paint sealant

WOW!!!! All that with just the UDM!

I am amazed! I was thinking rotary, so I went back to check and I see UDM! STUNNING!

EDIT:
Actually, have you used the Meguiar's G110? If so, how does it compare to the UDM (or to anyone that has, you can PM me if you don't wanna get this thread off topic). I'm thinking of buying a Meg's G220 because I don't like the idea of using a voltage converter for a 110V product as it runs hot (running at 110V @ 50hz is different to running 110V at 60hz- it's a complecated physics thing).

Thanks mate....I never tried the G110 or the G220, I tried only the UDM and i also use a transformer for it, and the only problem i ever had is to change the brushes of it... :dblthumb2:

Ahh I see, I believe that was probably caused by running it at 50hz rather than 60.
How hard were they to change and how hot does the machine get when your using it?

But scrolling down this thread to get to your reply still amazes how nice of a job you were able to do with the UDM! That car just looks so amazing!!!

It is very easy and cheap to replace them...I don't feel it very hot to be honest....My Milwaukee rotary is becoming much more hotter and it is 240V 60Hz

Great Job! :dblthumb2:

 

[HHIslander]

pampos, amazing job.. you made that car come back to life...

Did you just make one pass with each step?

 

[pampos]

Thanks guys...No mate...Some parts of the car required more than 2 passes with M105 but the next steps were enough 1 pass of each..The last one it was just to prepare the surface for the sealant and gain some more gloss if it was possible : )

Nice job. You've got great polishing skills. I use a 7424xp on a step down transformer and have no heating issues.
