But do you stop to change pads only to do hoods ?
What about pad type ? Flat or those textured foam like this one ?
3M Perfect-It Plus Foam Polishing Pad 8 inches, car polishing pad, buffing pad
Does this type of foam helps to keep splatter an heat in check with a rotary ?

I usually tape trims, moldings and unpainted plastics even though I only use a DA right now... but I've never covered windshields or places where the machine won't touch..... maybe this is some extra work with a rotary....
