    Any info on the Gloss It 21 polisher?

    just get a rupes 21. dont bother trying to hunt for one of the other 21mm polishers. Or you can play the waiting game and hope Griots comes out with a 21mm polisher since Maxshine has one now. One thing I do have to say - the china machines are a heck lot more powerful than the Rupes. But...

    rupes 12e vs 15es

    you can actually use some apps in your iphone or android and mount the phone to the polisher to measure vibrations.

    is the Rupes LFR75E really worth $200 more then GG3"

    I was actually thinking about comparing the power of my 75e vs my GG3. But I ended up selling the GG3 (finally). Been trying to sell it for some time now. I literally used it once and decided it was useless and put it up for sale. The 75e has MUCH more power. It's def worth the $200 markup...

    Griots, Flex, Rupes DA clone

    I noticed this problem before I even started using it. It took me 5 minutes of breaking it down to realize that not only does the shroud contact the backing plate but so does the counter weight. There needs to be a spacer to space out the backing plate and the machine.

    What goes wrong with the gg6?

    with a 3" pad would you say it corrects better than a PC with a 3"?? it seems like the shroud overhangs the BP

    Best Dual Action Polisher? Rupes - Griot's - Porter Cable - Meguiar's

    The reason Rupes didn't space the backing plate from the shroud is due to a feature they advertise - Anti-Spinning Shroud The dual function anti-spinning shroud is designed to protect the operator against the moving parts and act as a clutch for the backing plate, preventing further stress on...

    Best Dual Action Polisher? Rupes - Griot's - Porter Cable - Meguiar's

    I'm not entirely sure but I don't think the 75e could really take a washer mod or if it would benefit. I think the 12e has a similar shroud to the 15 and 21 and could benefit from some sort of spacer. .

    Best Dual Action Polisher? Rupes - Griot's - Porter Cable - Meguiar's

    nice! first time I've seen a photo of the new 75e beside the other DAs. I got to play with a 75e last month. I should have taken photos when I had the chance. I brought up that it was similar in size to the Porter but nobody believed me :P I think the most interesting question now is if the...

    Griots, Flex, Rupes DA clone

    The MaxShine isn't so much a copy. Its their own version of a high throw polisher. The reason people assume the AnsiAuto is a copy is because it looks darn similar to the Rupes. The internals have some resemblances as well. FYI Maxshine makes GG polishers. Connect the dots. You can not...

    Got a rotary for christmas

    I would say the swirls came back not because you used a rotary but because the polish you used was no good. Head to your local auto store and pick up some Meguiars Ultimate Compound and give that a try with the cutting pad (make sure you clean it before you use it again). Most people will be...
