I am buying a rotary buffer for bigger jobs like boats and RV's where the DA polisher can't get it done in time. Is hook and loop attachment good enough for this high speed work or is there a better attachment type to look for?

To me Bolt on wool Pads are my preference. I know 3M has them as Super Buff double sided I believe, Buff and Shine has a good assortment. I have not tried the velcro style and they may work fine on Auto/Trucks. On my RV the bolt on style are used as it gets pretty intense and heat build up is a concern. Buff and Shine has a good reputation to take abuse and keep going so I would not be afraid to try theirs.
