    Rotary Video #2

    Rotary Video #2

    This is showing the use of a Metabo rotary. Small like a PC but very powerful. One of the best tools out there for polishing and paint correction.

    It's Metabo Rotary. The Rolls of Rotaries! Small like a PC but more powerfull than a Makita rotary. An awesome tool that the pros wield.

    After you finish a polishing session you will tell a big difference from handling a regualr rotary and a Metabo. It has more of a PC feel to it...the newer model has a nice little hand-hold on the front now.

    Hello,

    The machine you ask of is a vapor steamer. It basically boils water to steam and then releases that pressurized steam out via a variety of nozzles. The unit I have runs about $600.00 and puts out 190 degree steam at 65 psi. It will produce a nice little burn right through your jeans on your skin (ask me how I know).

    I wish I had sun shots on that 1957 Porsche Speedster as well but when we finished the car it was beyond dark....I'll be posting up a video of a black Porsche and I will bring it out into the sun...if the sun ever shines again here in South Texas, and hopefully it will be swirl free

    He must have been applying a wax or sealant... Or maybe you can compound moving that fast. I'm not sure..

    You wouldn't you use a Rotary for applying wax/sealants/glazes would you?
