Pad stalling or not spinning on a DA polisher? Does it matter?

[@engenheiromateus]

Outfuckingstanding! EPIC! I follow you since day 1! I'm an engineer that chosen polishing for living because I love it. I can tell you guys are not the best, you are the ONLY ONE source of good and technical information! Keep up the BEST WORK in the world! Thank you so much! Greetings from Brazil.

[@OSRENOfficial]

Thank you! Really appreciate the kind words.

Wow. This topic has misled so many people for so many years and this is the first video I see that explains and demonstrate which way works better! This is so important and helpful. I have suffering a lot from DA not spinning at concave panels. I realized with either big or small polisher, on concave panels as soon as I apply a light pressure, the spin slows down or even talls, which I am told numerous times is wrong. So I have to almost let the pad float on the panel and spend 3x to 5x time to do that section, which only ends up with poor results. Today I was polishing again another concave section, applied minimal pressure to ensure pad spin, and this time no matter how I redo the section, with stiffer pads and compounds, the swrils just wouldn't go away! Then I thought "fxxx it! I am just gonna apply much more pressure and let the pad stall however it wants and leave all the work to orbiting! " And it worked the first time! And then I became more confused which technique I should stick to in the future and amost ended up buying a forced-rotation polisher right away. And 5 hrs later I saw this video. Now all myth is resolved! Just wish I had knew this 5 years ago.

As always, Osren are very professional and present the issue so well.

[@OSRENOfficial]

Thank you so much!

[@Tonyis4given]

Dual action means they you have both the oscillation and spin working together, when it stalls the oscillation keeps putting in the work. I prefer the DA over the rotary for this and many other reasons...Great content team Osren!

[@OSRENOfficial]

Yes, spot on!

[@healzone2272]

Team Osren, if I may ask, is it OK to buy a cordless DA polisher or one with power cord? If it's cordless, will I be able to complete polishing an entire car at one go or am I required to get an extra backup battery pack in case I do run out of juice? Kindly advise. Thanks in advance!🙏

[@OSRENOfficial]

@@healzone2272 Hey, best to check with the manufacturer for battery capacity and estimated usage. I believe most battery operated polisher are not capable of finishing entire car. sometimes you might require multiple steps to finish down too, got to put that into consideration too

What an excellent video explaining a polishing myth! I am a weekend warrior and always thought that I must maximize spinning the pad or it would not be cutting. Huge mistake! And of course the cuttings I performed were not efficient, and I wondered if the pads I used are not coarse enough. I'll try to apply more pressure to the polisher next time and not to concern too much about pad spinning. Thank you for the video!

[@OSRENOfficial]

Hey, both combination and technique plays a role. But we often advise to look into combination first.

[@JuanJimenez-xm4cu]

great video! I can still see the pat spinning on your maximize surface contact examples, it wont spin as fast but still does... Many inexpensive / cheap machines out there wont make the pad spin at all, they are not very good..

[@Seb726Laviolette]

Nice! Always wondered because i like to put pressure especially on heavy scratched paint

[@OSRENOfficial]

You and me both. Just be cautious with heavier polishing combinations (pad+compound), it's still possible to strikethrough paint on edges with a DA.

You're welcome Yasir :)

[@robertl.4675]

You just answered a question I've had for a long time. Thanks for sharing and have a great day!

[@adambasri3397]

Thank you so much for this video, this helps clearing the question for me. Full on surface contact is the way to go! 😤 I always thought “it’s a dual rotation right, if it doesn’t spin, wouldn’t there be no movement at all? Like complete halt but theres still rotation going on” But since i was taught to care for the rotation instead of contact, I just let it be but now you’ve cleared things out for me. Thank you Osren!

[@OSRENOfficial]

You're so welcome, we're glad this video was helpful!

Excellent well done video!!! 👍🏼🇨🇦

[@justintang9149]

Amazing! always had second thoughts on this during polishing! Thanks for clearing this doubt!

Our pleasure!

Fantastic video, GJ!.

[@adamcordeiro47]

What a great video, well done.

[@OSRENOfficial]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@Halford8080]

Hi, how about the pattern you can create in the refining process ? specially on deep black paint ? Or your method concern only cutting ? Obviously i wont spend more time to refine the marks i made my stalling the pad, what do you think ? 🙂

[@MassDefense]

Thank you so much!

[@bobdidit55]

Great video and great experiment. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Brillant video thank you 🙏😊👍

[@Secret_Sun33]

What about a forced rotation DA polisher like the Makita with "graduated" levels of force. Can you compare it to rotary and free spining DA's?

[@OSRENOfficial]

Great question! Since forced rotation/gear action DAs have two primary movements, how would different levels of pressure affect polishing action? You have aroused my curiosity, and we hope to be able to explore this as well in the near future.

[@untappeddetails3257]

Good video! Cool idea

Do you have a video on finishing with a rotary? I see some ppl do it but i always see holograms when i try

[@OSRENOfficial]

Hi there, actually we do: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hpS3fnesgLZ9sKM

@OSRENOfficial thank you!

Damn what a great video. I didn't know that!

[@petreticu6008]

Im fairly new to polishing, less than 1 year, from my experience, da's stahl when working on curved areas, you must use higher speeds to deal with it. I like rotaries more, such a versatile and easy to use machine once you get the hang of it, you can cut, finish, change backing plates for smaller areas. You dont even need a expensive tool to get amazing results, mine was 60 bucks and i love it. Only drawback is that is has a very short cable. Low speed machine and low speed movement on the panel gets you the best results. Every now and then, clean your pads, watch for their temperature and try not to work in the sun.

Can I polish my black matte car

Not recommended, polishing matte surface will make them shiny 😊
