I've been a pro detailer for a while now but I've never used a rotary. I have a Flex 3401 that I'm very happy with and get great results. How much of a leap is there between the Flex and say a DeWalt DWP849X? I have great technique so that's not an issue. Is it just a matter of keeping great technique and being extra aware of the paint (along with media) or is there a whole lot more to it?
