    Either way thanks.
    I accept your challenge! I love to see a video of you finishing down perfectly on black paint with a rotary without the use of glazes or fillers!!! Especially when you questions seem a bit on the newer to polishing side.

    By no means am I knocking you here, but perhaps try cutting with a rotary if need be and then finishing down with a DA.

    Re: Rotary with urofiber 50/50 microfiber pads

    Finishing with a rotary is done by thousands. It's not some secret artistic unicorn of a trade. I've done it in the past with low speed and pressure with a soft finishing pad.
    I was just asking about the pairing up of microfiber pads and a rotary. Which some have succeeded with as well. Obviously trickier and not as recommended as wool/foam.
    I'll probably just do B@S urofiber wool(supposedly they finish remarkably well)on a test spot, and finish with a soft foam if needed.

    Re: Rotary with urofiber 50/50 microfiber pads

    Please check out this thread. I was going to try to correct this hood with a rotary at first but found that a free spinning DA and a fiber pad followed up with a one step polish was a better option. The car turned out great and still does to thus day.

    I don't know what your vette looks like, but the hood on this little Ford was really messed up. I think there were even scratches from one of those car wash brushes that people scrub their wheels with and leave laying on the ground.

    Looks like its past the point of no return or just severely oxidized? Can it be fixed?
