a beginner on the detailing forum i use kept his new rotary in one spot too long trying to remove a small scuff , this is not a good idea , always keep a polisher moving and never keep it in one spot too long as heat will build up and melt the paint especially on plastic painted bumpers and you risk this happeningfeel for him as it wasnt his car and now he has to pay out for a bumper repaintwhat made it worse is that the original scuff was hardly noticable

in the wrong hands these machines can be very dangerous , in the right hands you can achieve a better than showroom shine

I too feel sorry for the defendant.I'm not a fan of the rotary polisher, but then I am not an expert in its use and would prefer to leave this type of work to the professionals.

Hi ctr, shouldn't you modify your new avatar to reflect your guidance on use, ie having it animated so it rotates around the box slowly. Tc

Here's a quick one I just made for you too (not quick enough, obviously!!)

 

[Tcc]

Good results lads, . Tc

 

[ctrdetailing]

cheers paul thats better

 

[ctrdetailing]

what programme did you use paul ?

 

[Paul_S]

Adobe Fireworks (part of the Adobe suite). I could improve it a lot by adding more frames to make it smoother although the file would be larger.

 

[ctrdetailing]

if you bored at any time paul can you do it for me , that was 7 frames , would like to see it with 10/12 , i dont have that programme so cant do it myself , i also wanted to see if i could get it to do a proper movement on it going left right left right stepping down a bit on each turn like a s shape movement dont put yourself out though cheers buddy

I've had a go mate. I tried using Flash (for the first time) then converted it to an animated GIF. I'm not sure I got the movement how you wanted it though:
