Rotary VS Dual Action for Compounding

I have done many tests rotary vs wool and here is one

Do you have any with lambs wool pads??

It can level defects faster without burning paint. Leveling a defect and burning through are two different things, burning is excessive heat which is not related to cut.

Sanding a piece of wood and setting it alight are different things, both generate some form of heat, get the picture?

Interesting...the term burning the paint. The pads on DAs get a lot hotter than on a rotary.

So an operator must be more conscious about clear levels using a DA than with a rotary because it can cut through clear faster?

But the paint dont get as hot.

bro, I probably would've thought the same thing a few years ago... but as a heads up turning the speed of your rotary to "almost max RPM's" doesn't equate to more correction.

Also, while I love foamed wool pads their cut is more like foam and less like wool.

We aren't using error in this discussion, so assume the operator knows how to use a rotary and doesn't heat the paint beyond damage.

Faster than cutting with a rotary? I believe that the 21 MKII offers the more correction than a rotary on open flat panels, but the 21mm orbit still makes it completely impractical for correcting every surface on most modern vehicles. Unless you're working out of a body shop and all the panels are disassembled? If not, I assume you're using a multi-tool approach which for me takes a lot more time.

21 MKII with 5” Kamakazi Beast bp and experience can be a one tool only, but I use the Mille with the 5mm orbit and Rupes Mini also.

Nice factual link right there. How you finding Resurrection? I like Redemption.

MKII still faster and more powerful.

This kind pad is the pad to use with rotary if you want most cut, but then the finish also sucks and you might have to do 3 steps.
