i do not have a rotary and i was wondering, what is the most abrasive/cutting power product out there for the pc and what pad? thanks
 
Gotta be careful with stuff like this or you'll instill marring that the PC won't be able to remove. Something like Hi-Temp Medium Cut or 1Z Ultra/Extra with a wool pad would be as aggressive as I'd go.



But honestly, I'd rather use a rotary with mild stuff than a PC with aggressive stuff. If I didn't have the rotary I'd just live with the imperfections the PC won't get out. Even *with* the rotary it pays to consider living with deeper defects ;)
 
I used SSR3 with a cutting pad on my PC to remove some really bad oxidation on an old Honda. The owner wasn't really concerned with micromarring as much as he was concerned about the paint being glossy again. That's one of only two times that I've ever used SSR3 via PC. It's some gritty sh**!

The right side was polished with SSR3, 2.5, clay, AIO, then UPP.

The other time I used SSR3 was on my dad's van, to remove these bad boys...

You can see both of the vehicles in the Extreme Detail forum. The van was for June, and I think the Accord was in April.

I've used a Hi-Temp Heavy Cut leveler on an orange propel pad and it went fine, actually left a finish ready for LSP.
 
I've used SSR3 once by PC with a Meg's cutting pad and found you have to work it a real long time (much much more than 2.5) to get it to break down. It also left some hazing that I had to take out with 2.5. In comparison, I got the same results with DACP and a Meg's cutting pad on my rotary at 1800rpm.

Yeah, I saw that on your other thread. That Hi-Temp stuff might be just the ticket for people doing "rotary work with a PC" :xyxthumbs
