Thanks Mr. Lacroix, this video helped me a ton. Practiced with my new rotary on my $800 beater and I couldnt believe the beautiful finish and how easy it was with your technique! I actually had someone compliment my car at the grocery store today!
Used it for the first time last weekend definitely worth buying if you're a person who likes detailing your own car recommend first time to use on lowest setting 800 so you don't burn paint don't leave in one spot keep moving it over paint easy to use ruclips.net/user/postUgkxfzbDkCRyv3CFXnLZI4APZtRRuG2uRmP2 truck looks like new again used maguires black light battery life like all milwaukee products seem to hold up well 😀
All right you are convincing me to go back to a rotary that I actually started with years ago after everything got stolen out of my garage 2 years ago I haven't polished my own car in 2 years and ashamed to say that but yes I lost everything they had a hay day in my garage and they must have taken at least an hour to get everything out of there but anyway I will go back to a rotary try to get a new cleaning system because I know that is extremely important especially with a rotary thank you for your channel I watch it all the time and I learn from you all the time you make such complicated things seem so simple and the the craziest things that you don't do seems so simple and why you should do it so again Ivan thank you for your channel thank you for your time
Really appreciate your simple, and common-sense approach to polishing our vehicles. Love your 'Snazzy' bow tie, by the way! Greetings from N. Kentucky USA
It was a very good suggestion explained it very wise, and Safe are planning to get one of those machines but I would like a battery wash I’d like a shiny vehicle It’s like a shiny pure shoes Wish you spent so much of your effort to polish it up
I used your video and wow, I got fantastic results! Slow and steady wins the race, and 600 RPM definitely seems to be the sweet spot for my car. Since I had a two-step paint correction to tackle, your video was invaluable in teaching me how to use a rotary polisher. It worked wonders - I managed to remove about 60% of the swirls and scratches! However, my machine can get a bit too resistant sometimes, especially with the flat foam pad I'm using compared to yours in the video.
I watched other DIY polishing videos a few months back, and 1) it took a lot of effort on my part because they said to apply pressure on the pad by pushing the machine, and 2) I ender up with results I wasn't happy with, and some burn-in (hope that's the correct term), and yes, I may have did some things incorrectly, being it my first time using a rotary polisher, but it really discouraged me to polish my cars again. Roll on a few months later, today I want to polish my son's car and happened across this video after watching several "beginner" videos that talked too much about irrelevant things, and were too technical (sandpapering!?!) for a beginner video, then I landed on your video, and you encouraged me to try to do it again, with easy and logical steps, and hope it comes out great. Thank you!
Okay update, after spending about 4 hours polishing my son's car, I am very happy with the results this time, thanks to your tips (sorry I don't remember your name since first video of yours I watched 😅) that I can't help sneaking a peek or three at it out in the garage 😊.. looks almost brand new compared to before I started.. excellent 👍🏻👍👍🏻
I use a rotary polisher and yellow foam pad and it works great, no swirl marks. My pad is a Meguires flat yellow 7", but it still works. I do the same kinds of things in the vid. I have a s[ray bottle of water to wet the pad a little too. And a couple small towels to wipe down the paint.
@@Detailers-Business-Academy I understand that sometimes it is not easy to recommend things, I want to buy one and I only will use it, in my case, for my two cars, don't want to buy something to expensive, because I would not use it much. Thanks for all you do!
I like this man. He is like one of those people when manufacturers try introduce a new type of machine which is worse than previous and they try to make money out of stupid newbies. this man comes to help. I like ur videos. and I know exactly why u are saying they only person who uses causes swirls, because I enjoy watching detailing videos on RUclips and every detailer I have seen they use rotary wrong like u showed
I have been trying to watch so many videos to understand the correct technique for polishing as a beginner. I am so happy to come across this video of yours showing the right techniques to follow in an efficient manner. Truly inspired. Thank you 👍
Awesome rotary tutorial! I'm still on the learning curve but the more I use the rotary, the more my DA's sit in the toolbox. I love that Flex too. Light enough to use all day but beefy enough to cut oxidation off an RV with a big circular sheep.
@@Detailers-Business-Academy I swear they go "baaaa" as I spin em. Seriously though, I love the pad washer 4000. Ever since getting it, my pad inventory is so low. One pad for the whole car. Gone are the days of buying pads 10 at a time! 👊😎
Thanks Yvan for taking time in your travels to create this helpful video. So simple to follow and had to laugh at last tip on sniffing the polish. Enjoy your travels and looking forward to more!
Quando vedi gli altri lucidare sembra che chissà cosa stanno facendo, mentre tu in tutto quello che spieghi sei sempre molto semplice e diretto, complimenti davvero
I’m so glad I watched this! New to detailing and I bought a rotary today not thinking anything of it. Thinking it was DA. Lol! I couldn’t crank it past 3. Contemplated returning it but since I watched this…I’ll keep it.
So I was using my new rotary today it was jumping all over the place so I stopped and used my orbital. I had enough product so I don't know what the deal is it was flat etc.
@@Detailers-Business-Academy I was using the Euro fiber pad, yes I was using the trigger lock, and I was starting out at speed 2. But every time was jumping
I learn something new every video you post. I have been working on mastering the rotary and you gave me two eye openers here. Damp pad and non-flat surface pads. I have the system 4000 which is amazing as well. Thanks for the great video Yvan.
Thanks for some great sage advice. I have to admit the system 4000 has been a BIG addition to my work flow. It just works. I especially like the results from my ever so slightly damp clean pads. Just better and consistent results…easier. Finally getting to a point in my work flow where I can stop worrying about results as 90% of all my correction work , even on nicer cars , are daily drivers. They and I are not looking for perfection, especially when I’ve educated them on the true costs to deliver and the toll on the paint.
“Shiny scratches” over “perfect” failing clear any day. Even on my personal vehicle, I honestly just love washing it and pushing the shine to its limits. Yeah I’m generally careful to not add swirls but I have realistic expectations and I get more enjoyment out of washing it with rinseless wash & wax then I do staring at it letting dust collect because “oh no a swirl!” I bring this philosophy to my customers as well. They don’t care about swirls, they just want a detailed car in a reasonable amount of time. Besides, even if I accidentally install a few love marks, most of the cars I could use a light polish anyway. Most people want a shiny, clean car-and not a perfect car with a detailer telling them how they can and cannot wash their own car lol
Sir, you are and excellent teacher. You have answered plenty of my questions. I bought into the DA polishers just like everybody else did. I must say that I love my DeWalt 20volt rotory polisher. I was looking to purchase the cordless DA unit but that puppy cost $300.00. All I wanted it for was applying wax and sealants. I figured I could wax with my rotory. Well, you just confirmed that I could. Thank you for this video. I can save $300.00 and do everything with my rotory. I have corded DA and rotory polisher for cutting and polishing. Thanks again and I did subscribe to your channel.
My first polishing was a DA. After watching this video I feel like I made a mistake with buying DA and should have started with rotary. Great video! :-)
i started with a rotary because da is so expensive at that time, for a newbie its not worth the frustrating and time consume just to get a perfect finish with rotary, it need alot of experiences and learning just to get a swirl and hologram free finish.. rotary is more suit for those that do the new paint work cutting or any aggressive work.
I seen this video pass and inside I have a Audi a3 gloss black just finished with rotary wool, Normal I switch to my excentric to remove rotary wool swirls. Then after seeing this pulling my rotary out low speed and all other options you showed us I was amazed by the result, bro I don't even need to a 3th step, the paint looks sweet after a ipa wipe. Thank you for sharing your experience 👍🤘
@@Detailers-Business-Academy I tried to find the lake country pad washer system 4000 in EU but nowhere to be found, I found out that your really need that system cause I need to change pads frequently otherways they won't cut and finish properly.
There are two kinds of detailers, ones that have a System 4000 pad cleaner and those that need one. It's probably one of the best investments I ever bought! Growing up in the car business, I learned to polish back in the late 70's with a rotary. I could then, and still can, get a very slick, swirl free finish with a rotary and a waffle pad. This was like a flash back and was exactly what my mentors back then said. More people should really learn how to wield a rotary. Thanks once more!
So if you regularly clean your pad you finish the job with only one pad? Another myth busted whether detailers suggest to have 10 pads for one car. Is this right?
Used one of your methods today, as i were using Optimum Hyper Polish, removing it with ONR, and when removing the ONR with some Gtechniq C2v3, made it so much easier to remove the polish, and jump directly to finished product.
Hello yvan what a great video. Will share it with my students. One thing I'm renowned for is being fanatical about keeping my pads clean and lasting ages. The one key to success I teach is having pads centred perfectly on the plate. A few mm out and swirls can occur plus vibration. My fein rotary starts at 200 and also does not have a trigger, has push pads to adjust revs but I like to use it between 350, 500 and 600 or 900 at most. 350-500 to finish.
I really appreciate your straight forward approach to this video. One question…as an individual working to take care of my own vehicles, what do you recommend as a pad washer…looks like the 4000 you recommended is $180 on Amazon, a bit steep for somebody who’ll use it once a month.
Great informative video. Not a rotary user myself but you've taken out the scare factor for me. One great tip you mentioned which last got of a UK detailer was using a rinseless wash to remove the residual polish/compound. I think that's genius. I tried it when l polished my car and it made removal easy and l felt much safer. All that's left behind are maybe some polymers which are way easier to remove with a panel wipe than polishing oils. So safer again.
I just tried polishing my car for the first time with a rotary. I clay barred it and did everything in the video except for use the same pad and I still ended up with swirls. But my rotary was walking away from me and isn’t smooth like yours when it’s on the vehicle
you're the first person I've ever seen mention using a dampened pad or dampened towel to do the first polish wipe. I'm going to have to try that! Thank you for sharing!

I thought polishing with a rotary was rocket science... until I watched your videos.
It’s a marketing ploy by DA manufacturers to make the rotary seem like a dangerous machine
Nice, I like the large pad size as well, I have a Suburban to correct soon I may need to go with that size to make things a little faster.

Thank for tech simple and easy to make good polishing... I have a question. The bucket for cleaning pad , use specific solution cleaner ?
I use Rinseless wash or pad cleaning powder.
When do you know if a pad needs cleaning? Or everyday after a buffing session?
After every section
Hello good morning very good info but when do you have bad paint??
It’s the same process
I prefer to use rotary polisher versus DA, especially for cutting.
Excellent
Should I spray the pad every time I start a new area on the vehicle or is once enough for most of the job?
Every section
What tips would you recommend for good posture on lower portions of a vehicle?
Great question, in our shops we elevated the vehicles on lifts. In a mobile situation I like to use a Racatac.
