What's up guys were back here in the Detail Garage, Javier and I, we've still got this
Chrysler 200.
In our previous video we had a detailer vs detailer challenge using a dual action polisher
and a rotary polisher.
You saw how a rotary takes care of deep scratches faster and more precise than a dual action
polisher.
Javier lost the challenge so I'm going to teach him how to use a rotary polisher so
in the future he can use it on his own car or other vehicles that come
into the Detail Garage.
Javier, you've got yourself the TORQ R Rotary Polisher.
This is an awesome machine for removing deep scratches, swirls as well as wet sanding marks
to restore a deep reflective glow.
We already have an Orange Hex-Logic Pad on there, this is perfect for removing minor
scratches and swirls, which is what this car is covered in.
We are also going to use V36 Optical Grade Cutting Polish to refine the paint to a mirror
finish.
Starting by shaking this up and applying five dime size drops to the pad.
Then spreading it on the lowest speed setting before we move on to polishing.
Perfect, so before you use any polisher on the vehicle it is best to spray the pad with
Pad Conditioner.
This lubricates the pad to reduce friction especially on a rotary which creates a lot
of heat, this will reduce that so you won't burn paint.
Now that he has dabbed it out, we are going to spread it out on the lowest speed setting
to evenly coat this section and the pad won't hit a dry spot that would create marring.
Keep the pad as flat as possible so you don't create a hot spot because angled pads create
marring and holograms which is paint damage.
After spreading it out we'll try speed setting three to do our polishing.
Before you put the polisher on the vehicle there are a couple different things between
a dual action and a rotary.
Dual action, you put your product on the vehicle and place the machine on the vehicle then
turn it on.
When using a rotary you turn the machine on while it is off the vehicle and place it on
the paint.
Pull it off the paint and shut it off when you're done.
Leaving it on the paint will create a ring or micro scratch which is very noticeable.
Gently placing it and removing it from the vehicle and blending will give you the perfect shine.
Casting a wide net, Javier.
Put it on speed setting three.
That sucked...I did horrible.
Let me show you real quickly how I do it.
I'm going to turn the machine on to speed setting three and place it on the vehicle
then letting the power of the machine carry it.
You want to be nice and relaxed when using a rotary.
Think of this as if it were an animal, it can sense your stress and being nervous.
So, if you fight it then it will fight back.
But by letting it glide you'll get the best results.
Check out those results, see how fast that was to get rid of those imperfections.
This is a nice gloss with a lot of metallic flake but over here it is clouded by all of
the scratches and swirls which takes away from the overall look.
Now we need to move on to the other sections.
In the meantime, you guys can head over to our website chemicalguys.com.
I'm not going to do that quite yet, because I want to go over a couple more things.
The amount of pressure you put on these machines, as I mentioned earlier you don't apply any
pressure just letting the weight of the machine carry it.
By applying too much pressure you create a ton of heat which can harm the paint.
You also saw that by using one hand you can guide this, keep the pad completely flat and
centered to get the best results.

If you like this car, Javier or this video be sure to give it a thumbs up and we'll see
you next time right here in the Detail Garage.
