To be brutally honest if your surface is not dead smooth then a cylinder mower is a bit of a waste and will do nothing more than cut lines into the final finish.
Yes I'd be using a rotary for current mowing and also as a scalping machine providing the height adjuster can be forced to get down to dirt level or just above.
Cheers, BB.
PS. Here's a photo of my freshly planted front lawn (last Season) after its first ever scalping which was around 5mm above ground surface using a Masport rotary.

I live a 24 Hour lifestyle, but every now and again I seem to fall asleep, well at least that's what my wife tells me.
