DRYING MOTOR RPM QUESTION

Do you think 6 rpm is fast enough for FC Lite or others?

Thanks,
Don

Probably, but at a minimum. 18rpm is a better all around speed for a wide variety of finishes, but if you don't have ready access to that speed and you already have the 6rpm set up, I'd give it a go.

I'll agree, I find my 18 rpm to work the best of the various speeds I have laying around.

I use 6 rpm rigs and like them. I can do a better job putting on epoxy at 6 rpm than 18 rpm. Maybe I am just old and slow. John Butterfield

Mine is 2 RPM, I AM old and slow. I have an 18 RPM, also; can't marble on it at all. It's just too fast for me.
I know others like the 18; I like it slower, personally.
