mostly contributed by the choice of cloths - esp - good morning cotten terry towel - ta da

as for me - i would choose plushy microfibers towel - contaminant pick during wash

surface contaminant pick during clay

otherwise it will be push further in when correctional carried out - removing the root cause

cheapest & best QD around - dilutables- for clay

Machines plays another big part other than products


different machine different behaviour = different results

Re: Mastering Rotary crash course - Paint correctiio lesson-car detailing clinic by K

Hi KC ,
I am thinking of getting a rotary and i know you would strongly recommend Makita 9227 but however it is above my budget . Do you think DCA that comes with 6 speed like the ones used in one of the above picture will do a good job . I am not a heavy user probably 3 - 4 times a year . Any advice from you will be greatly appreciated . Thanks .
