    A quick two thumbs up for the 21 MKII

    I think you're right it would handle that even better, but I don't have one handy. Some of it was speed 3, most of it 4.

    A quick two thumbs up for the 21 MKII

    I'm impressed how much better the Rupes works with the washer mod!! Thanks Kevin Brown :xyxthumbs: https://vimeo.com/154519108 Trip to the hardware store, break out the dremel and those are the results. It made a pretty big difference, far less pad stall. You have to really stay on top of the...

    A quick two thumbs up for the 21 MKII

    Here's a video for you guys :) https://vimeo.com/154467695 This is an example of a trouble spot that I had delegated to only using the mini to deal with the small surface area and curves. I tried to show a few examples in the video of how I figured out to make the 21 Mark II work here. I made...

    Yeah no problem, I've got another polish session tomorrow I'll see what I can put together on video of both in those tight spots. Sent from my SM-G925I using Tapatalk

    A quick two thumbs up for the 21 MKII

    The more I use the 21 MKII the more I realize that troublesome spot on the 150 door panels was all about space and not being able to get the tool in there instead of the tools fault for pad stalling. I've been working on another van and I've compared the mini to the MKII in tight spots and I...

    Review: Wolfgang Uber Ceramic Coating and Nanoskin AutoScrub - Black BMW

    if it's torn through the film it won't work, but for surface scratches the XPEL ultimate version of their films can be agitated to "heal", pouring very warm water helps allows it to expand a little and do it's magic. The spots I corrected were rock impacts but it didn't pierce the film. I'll see...

    Review: Wolfgang Uber Ceramic Coating and Nanoskin AutoScrub - Black BMW

    A quick almost three month update. This has been the mildest winter in the northeast that I can remember so the harshness of salt has not been that bad. I've done rinseless washes every few weeks and I have not noticed any degradation in beading except for one spot the other night. On the...

    A quick two thumbs up for the 21 MKII

    I haven't used a 15 so I'm not sure. I've attached a pic with a zoom-in showing the area. It's the tight smaller curve on the bottom of the door panel that is reflecting the chrome step. Part of it was access to area because of size of tool and the small amount of surface area to pad contact...

    A quick two thumbs up for the 21 MKII

    The only spot I ran into stalling issues was a tight curve on the lower door panels of the F150 where there was very little surface area of the pad meeting the panel. I brought the mini out to tackle those areas. I only have the mini as a comparison point for the extra power preventing...

    I think you'll quite enjoy adding that mini to your tool set, great correction in tighter spots in a DA form.

    A quick two thumbs up for the 21 MKII

    With the glorious surprise warm day in the northeast I had the opportunity to finally break out the new 21 MKII. I've had the 75 mini in my arsenal for awhile so I'm not entirely new the Rupes family, but I do not have the 21 vs 21 MKII comparison. Anywho, I'm a long time Flex 3401 user and...
