Oh goody, was just thinking about this the other day. Trying to push paint enhancements and qp-on packages, this could be super profitable. Can't wait to see this!
The ACA 500 is so absolutely amazing! Love seeing the rotary being promoted, long throw marketing has prevented so many people from enjoying the versatility that the rotary provides!
Exactly what I've been looking for. I'm convinced that rotary is the way to start and go. Great skill with a rotary is better than a great DA without skill.
I love using the rotary . And I think everyone should learn to use it !! , it’s not hard and it’s not the burn the paint polisher . Start out slow on 600 and being to learn 🤙🏼🤙🏼🔥
Please be a pro, just say that you love that channel and finish there, I don’t watch some other detailing youtubers now because they don’t show what I need but maybe someone else like them, they also put the same effort as Brian but in differents ways. They don’t sucks, it’s just different 😏
Brian you really are a professional and the finished product says it all. I have no doubt you are a busy man. I can tell you love what you do and that helps make the day go by fast.Thanks for the knowledgeable videos ✊
I really like your tricks and tips for the rotary , that’s only what I have for now and I learn a lot with your videos. Now that is really cold in here (Quebec) and already snow on grass, I have to wait until next spring to got pleasure to make my own cars. By that time, I will probably order some differents backing plate size and pads for my rotary. Again Brian, a big thanks to you !
Got the m1000 and started playing with a trashed single stage deck lid. I find for me that it's like buffing floors with the difference being super sensitive input as far as left to right goes. By the end of the play time I found I was relaxed and not working at all. Have only used the orange and white lake county (have the grey and black) but I am looking forward to getting more play time in and learning more. So thank you as always for a wonderful video sir.
Never corrected paint before, purchased a couple of rotary’s, watched your videos and learned your technique then spent a few days working on my car. Results were great. Nothing to fear from the rotary at all.
This is awesome!! I just picked up the Maxshine M1000... I need all the tips and tricks i can get.. Thanks man👍🏼👍🏼 Getting practice panels later this week🤞🏻
As I’m skimming through videos I see “ Rotary” and a picture of a corvette and immediately thought it was a Rotary engine in a corvette 🤣 and didn’t notice that it’s Brian’s channel 🤣
Brian, I've almost admired your videos and channel. I've detailed for 27 years and love the rotary. Do you ever slow your machine speeds right down and increase your arm speed with the rotary to refine the finish even when cutting so that the finish has no haze, rotary marks and any holograms are ultra fine rather than being heavier? that's my preference regardless of the liquids I use which are SMAT and DAT combined. I find that way I always get great finishes even with wool prior to really refining the paint finish
Great channel and have been subscribed...Skipping over any DA and going straight to smaller rotary. What is your recommendation between M 550 and PE 8? I will be doing personal vehicles, including Harley (will be getting Nano/Mini attachments for this too) - Maybe a Harley dresser make-over?. More smaller rotary videos please!!!!!! 1 step and 2 step procedures with products that don't leave a lot of residue and are easier to wipe off. I'll pay a little extra for advanced products. Thanks and may you be blessed with great health and good fortune!
Nice 👍🏼👍🏼. Question, I saw on another popular channel, stating that, smaller backing plates on rotaries provide less power, cutting or compounding and speed needs to be increased with smaller b plates to see results. I experienced this myself doing some B pillars and window trim ( frames) using a 1and 2" pads having use a more aggressive cutting pad afraid of increasing the speed above III with this same rotary, but I wanted to ask you and confirm it, since it's the opposite using a DA. Thanks again!
GREAT JOB B! I was wondering if you ever had to pull one of those out. I tried to cut with the small ones you use and I just can’t get it like I want. Mainly because I’m not familiar with the pads.
I’ve watched all your rotary videos. In some you recommend putting it in a 10 degree angle And some videos you say keep them flat. Does the pad determine that? Or what exactly. Thank you! Your videos are awesome.
I am getting carnuba wax Thursday this week but my truck paint isn't all the way blended in how would I use that kind of wax to and what color pad would I use to blend the paint in. I have a Warrior polisher 7 inch. I am getting rid of my truck in future because I already have another truck now but when I get my other truck I still will be polishing it too. I used ceramic wax but the effect didn't come out great probably because my paint job wasn't blended in too. Plus I didn't use my rotary polisher when I applied the ceramic wax either.
Hey B, I have a 2015 Silverado Black... I’m interested to know how you would classify the clear coat on that truck? I do know it’s hard as hell to get any scratches out what so ever with small polishers. I can get them with my buffer tho. But I’m try’n to learn the polishers systems.
Thanks for another Corvette vijeo!! I noticed that you used a large polisher for this job. How do you decide what size polisher you will use for a correction? Thanks!!
@@apexdetail85 What kind of compounds and pads would you suggest? Again, I've never held a buffing machine. My paint is not bad, just some light swirls and haze .. I have megs swirl remover 2.0.
Brian you should really upgrade to the dewalt or even the flex or-14 rotary. The drill master can’t hold speed like the other two and the feel is night and day.
If you are not sure. Take something like 3D One to a test area on the car. If it corrects swirls...it is soft. If there is no improvement...it is stubborn and hard clear.
after watching 10 of your rotary polishing videos i really think 3" polisher with 5" backing plate is way to go on a rotary polisher specially for the new bee's like me looks like 3" polishers has more than enough power for 5" backing plate and looks like it is so much easier to control this big guy looks so bulky in my opinion i am sure it will do a lot more work in body shops compare to 3" ones but we don't need that kind of power i think i am gonna get the m550 do you think flex version is a better option brian?
Just wondering, can you add a 5" or 6" backingplate and pad on the M550 rotary polisher your were using? I really like the Maxshine M15 pro DA im using so i can use thus M550 with 3"to 6" pads and get the small Flex PXE mini for 2" or 1" pads in rotary mode for those small difficult areas and it can also be used with a 3" in DA mode so i got all plates covered :)
Love my Rotary, just got another one 2nd hand thats like new and lighter and lower rpms..! i always found GM Red paint to fade easy for one reason.. [paint pigments? ] maybe?
Its the same thing as with a DA except with this rotary you leave more haze then with a DA. however with the rotary its easier to do the edges which is more difficult to do decent the larger the throw of the DA. Any reason why you switched machines except size?
I wish I could put my car (Dacia Sandero) on your expert hands because It drives me crazy since I´ve tried to correct the paint using a Skil Rotary (very similar to your drill master) Meguiars M105 followed by M205 with orange cutting pad from Chemichal guys (the ex-logic ones) but, there was no to little effect on the defects. Am I doing something wrong with my tools?
Would you recommend getting a Flex PE8-4? I need a universal rotary for getting in to the tighter areas as well as doing the whole car, also not very heavy.
Brian, there are so many different pads in this industry that it can be very confusing about which is the right pad for the right materials and car finishes. Where does one go to learn what to use with what?
@@vac3poteski360 if you know how to use a rotary you’ll finish way better with rotary been in the paint refinishing and car body for decades have tried every type of polisher none beats a rotary
What is hard, what is soft clear coat? That's the question. Please Brian, go back to the basic. Take a panel and show us how to recognize when we are under treating a hard coating or over treating a soft one. I'm sure it will be very appreciated by your followers! Thank you
One steps and paint enhancements with the rotary on the way...plus much more! Stay tuned!
A one-step with the rotary? Oooohhh... I MUST stay tuned for this, as I just LOVE the rotary!!!
Oh goody, was just thinking about this the other day. Trying to push paint enhancements and qp-on packages, this could be super profitable. Can't wait to see this!

As a DIY painter that would drive me nuts! Time for a new paintjob....
Yes.!! Just picked up the M550!
Thanks Brian. Just picked up that Maxshine 1000 Rotary. Looking forward to mastering it . Appreciate your willingness to share your experience. 👍👍

Great video. Show as how to use the rotary on curves and bodylines .
Nice sound.
Thank you for all your information Brian, I have a dewalt rotary, what speed would you recommend to do a 1 step?
I been using a rotary for over 40 years...It's still the best way to do your first cut...
Great video, keep up the awesome work, 👍

Thanks a LOT! for another great rotary video. BTW Which cutting compound won the cutting contest on the rotary? Greetings from Colombia.
Such a smooth ride
Brian. What's a good cheap rotary polisher for a beginner like myself
Hi love your videos
My question is I have a Audi A3 is the clear coat hard or soft
I have a Milwaukee rotary Polisher
Thanks
More of these please!

MASTER.........saludos desde mexico.... EXELENT
Excellent video mate, I love your channel, but... In this case... Why you didn't use an ipa to verify if the correction is "sincere"?
I’ve watched all your rotary videos. In some you recommend putting it in a 10 degree angle
And some videos you say keep them flat. Does the pad determine that? Or what exactly.
Thank you! Your videos are awesome.
What backing plate is that
When you switched to blue pad on the Vette you didn't mention which compound you used. ACA 500 or 3 D1
Another great video. Thanku Brian

There is no wrong selection. I just grab whatever I am in the mood for that day.
Beginner question, how can I tell if I have a thin or thicker clearcoat? I have a 03 buick lesabre.
That will have a decent layer of clear. You have plenty to correct there.
@@apexdetail85 What kind of compounds and pads would you suggest? Again, I've never held a buffing machine. My paint is not bad, just some light swirls and haze .. I have megs swirl remover 2.0.
Great video
How do you know if the clear cloat is hard or soft from just looking at a panel at a body shop?
Thanks for all the great videos Brian!!
What backing plate are you using with those LL wool pads?
A five inch I picked up on Autogeek.
What pad and polish did you use to finish the hard clear coat?
How does that happen with etching in the clear coat
Hi Brian.
In terms of finishing, what is the unique or the special things that only a DA polisher can produce, that the rotary machine can't?
The pad movement when polishing in the video does it to slow ? For rotary. That speed almost for like when use DA
☺️ heehee for a second there i thought the video was about a Rotary Wankel Engine
Do you have any overheating issues with the Maxshine M550 using a larger backing plate?
What backing plate do you recommend?
Brian you should really upgrade to the dewalt or even the flex or-14 rotary. The drill master can’t hold speed like the other two and the feel is night and day.
It’s always hot here in the Philippines.. what can I do to extend the open time of a liquid compound or polish? TIA
Keep a quick detailer nearby....it adds lubrication and extends cycle time.
Apex Detail thanks Brian.. I’ll try that!
Rotary VS 3k rpm drill, is it worth it to get a rotary just to polish your car once?
How to know if clear coat is hard or soft? Thank you.
A quality rotary is my next purchase after viewing the rotary vids.
as always great video again buddy. thanks 4 using rotary..u could of finished with Sonax perfect finish?any1 win ur contest?b well good friend
How do u know which panels have hard or soft clear coat?
If you are not sure. Take something like 3D One to a test area on the car. If it corrects swirls...it is soft. If there is no improvement...it is stubborn and hard clear.
@@apexdetail85 thank u sir. Love your channel
after watching 10 of your rotary polishing videos i really think 3" polisher with 5" backing plate is way to go on a rotary polisher specially for the new bee's like me
looks like 3" polishers has more than enough power for 5" backing plate and looks like it is so much easier to control this big guy looks so bulky in my opinion i am sure it will do a lot more work in body shops compare to 3" ones but we don't need that kind of power i think i am gonna get the m550 do you think flex version is a better option brian?
what is the RPM on that rotary the second speed and the four speed ?
Cool!!
Next purchase upgrading 👍🏻
Good morning I have a rotary from harbor freight
Just wondering, can you add a 5" or 6" backingplate and pad on the M550 rotary polisher your were using?

No larger than a 5 inch. It can handle it.
Why dont work with te 3d one on a black foam pad to finish .its a 1 step product no ?
BRAVO!👏👏👏
What is the blue foam pad type please???

Love my Rotary, just got another one 2nd hand thats like new and lighter and lower rpms..! i always found GM Red paint to fade easy for one reason.. [paint pigments? ] maybe?
You have to keep the heat down on fiberglass, it can get hot fast and burn, I have done over 100 Vetts the newer ones are easier than the 1980's...
Its the same thing as with a DA except with this rotary you leave more haze then with a DA. however with the rotary its easier to do the edges which is more difficult to do decent the larger the throw of the DA. Any reason why you switched machines except size?
Just showing different types of machines in action. No particular reason.
It's weird how details use a six-inch backing plate with the rotary but.in body shops they use the seven and a half to eight inch
I wish I could put my car (Dacia Sandero) on your expert hands because It drives me crazy since I´ve tried to correct the paint using a Skil Rotary (very similar to your drill master) Meguiars M105 followed by M205 with orange cutting pad from Chemichal guys (the ex-logic ones) but, there was no to little effect on the defects.

205 is a polish. Change your pad to something less firm.
@@jonmike316 thanks for your recommendation I will follow it
So....would Ford clear coat be harder or softer?

I love mine. Absolutely!
Apex Detail Thanks!
I always have dust with rotary
What about using a product like Optimum Clear Coat Restorer to fix the pitting issue on the clear coat?
It is an option for those with the budget...absolutely.
@@apexdetail85 What would had charged the customer for you to do that on this car?
Brian, there are so many different pads in this industry that it can be very confusing about which is the right pad for the right materials and car finishes. Where does one go to learn what to use with what?
Everyone is different...but I like wool pads to cut...and foam to finish.
What RPM? Machines from different manufacturers do not work at equal speeds in the 2,3 or 4 speed settings. Thanks
Aproximate...The sound of the machines in the video should get you close. Polisher should have RPM displays to make it easier.
Rotary versus DA, which one is the better choice?
Rotary but I have been pleasantly surprised by my new Rupes DA
A hard question to answer Tundra. Some will not even purchase a rotary in their lifetime. I myself could do without a DA. Personal preference.
I think both are usefull.
For example i use rotary and wool pad for cut and then i swith to Da with foam for finish.
Always best results
@@vac3poteski360 if you know how to use a rotary you’ll finish way better with rotary been in the paint refinishing and car body for decades have tried every type of polisher none beats a rotary
Rotary all the way. hate da.
Why would you use a rotary on soft paint? Couldn’t you just do a single step with a DA on soft paint in one step?
I thought someone put a 3 rotor engine in a corvette.. Clickbait ;) Just kidding.
literly scratching ur way 2 perfection. love the fact u showed body lines and cracks taped off.u rarely c or hear anymore...
