Yeah I think I am just going to do that. 3000grit should be good?

I have the 15 and use it often. It is Aweeeesome! Rupes pads and polishes are the best (to me)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hello Family! I recently detailed a clients White 2005 G35 for the first time. I did a two step with the Rupes 15. I used Rupes green pad with Zephir, then tangerine pad with FF3000. The thing is, there are some stains at the door handle that are yellow/brown. They look like they are like...

I just graduated from Wesleyan. Im home in DC now. Welcome!

I use opti-seal all the time after correction and it is a phenomenal product. If it I do a lighter package I use OCW. The ease of use and time savings of both is just breakthrough. +1 for Optimum Products. (Just got a gallon of Opti-bond, testing tomorrow)

You did a really great job Richy! It was a great read. Felt like I was there.

+1 And get the Rigid Auto Detailing kit with the extra attachments. Home Depot is it.

Wonderful! Great tip to know. I know Paul Dalton always uses the Zephir with the green. I wonder how it works with the yellow. I'm going to have to pick it up and try.

Mark what's your take on the Perfect Finish on Green and Yellow pads? Could you see yourself using it with green or yellow more on clients cars?

I believe he does sand it. Notice its round in the first pic, then it becomes more oval shaped in the next. He also has sand paper in the pic. Get a normal 3/16 and sand down the two sides.

This should have everything you need http://www.autopia.org/forum/machine-polishing-sanding/143592-optimizing-performance-rupes-bigfoot-lhr15es-lhr21es.html Just go to the hardware store and take the backing plate with you and get some sanding paper. Hope that helps
