pics of buffer burn / hologramming

have searched but have had no luck--

Can someone post some pics of Buffer Burn / Hologramming in dark paint. Someone I work with is thinking of buying a rotary and I am trying to convince him to start with a PC. I would like to show him what happens when you do not know what you are doing.

Re: pics of buffer burn / hologramming

Yup, and without much difficulty too. A couple minutes with a cutting pad and DACP and the paint looked like new. I've got an album of that car somewhere. I just can't remember the URL. lol

The PC can do a lot more than people give it credit for. Case in point...

Yeah I just laugh when some "pro" says that a PC can't correct paint. All the before and after pics I see plus the results I have achieved must all be optical illusions than because we all know that a PC can't correct paint.

Re: pics of buffer burn / hologramming

The green one is very similar to a job I have this weekend. A black Benz E500 (i think e series). Hopefully SSR 2.5 and blue edge will take care of it.

Re: pics of buffer burn / hologramming

A rotary can be a great tool to have used right, it also can be one of the most damaging if not used right

I used a rotary for the first time last w/e. I used a 6" BP and same excel pads that I use with my PC. I used some 106ff on a dark gray acura with Green pad. I had no problems at all with hologramming.

http://www.imagemotorworks.com/scott/acura/


I then started on my white acura legend with PG/orange, IP/orange and FPII/green for the trunk. I was at 1500rpm 2 1/3 on the hitachi dial.

Used NB and some PB SnG:
