maybe i did- i edited the last paragraph out

i think that the best detailers are the one who bring the best results.

thank you for your replay mike. i used this technique with my old makita for years before but now i prefer a mini machine for an ultra tight areas.. do you have a video of you doing that with the 21?

thanks for the the very detail explanation . even that i am pretty sure that the pad always flat ( i am well aware about how impotent it is ..) i will put even more attention on that. is there any video about it in order to make it more visual ?

i am using the washer mod on and off for the last year. i have not decide what is better for me.i think that i can control the machine better with out the washer mod. she can be brutal with it and not necessarily correct better.

i did not expect that the 21 will be good on tight places. i was kind of upset when i had to put to much attention in order to make it not stall on a curve bottom of a flat door...

hey guys!since day one i am trying to convince myself and others that my rupes 21 mk2 is the best thing but you know what? i was wrong,its a big disappointed .. i have it for a year and barley use it, she can cover big and straight surface but on curves? a waste of time...mark 2 or not it's...

yes-it's the same rupes pad that destroyed a few days after ..

thanks guys for the tips, i will try to reduce my polishing time in order to keep my pads alive (my FLEX 3401 is so different in that sense ...) one thing is not really clear to me-if speed 4 is the maximum we have to use with the 21 mark2 and faster is just to wild and destroying pads, why do...

The pads on the floor where on their way to be wash, the pass that was on the video was the last one for the job . I never use a dirty pads and i clean them every 1-2 buffing cycles with air and after ~10~ cycles with APC and move to a fresh pad. Sent from my E5823 using Tapatalk

I am adding a video, it's me working on the rupes with a rupes pad. Maybe it can put some light on my technique. It's in hebrew (for my costumers in israel) but everything else is universal.. What do you think about the technique? The result is in the second part of the video. I will be...

Do you mean overused in "use it for too many cars/years atc" or overuse on "too much time for a buffing cycle" ? The only pad that have some "mileage" on is the white spider pad. Sent from my E5823 using Tapatalk

4-5 pea size drops...

it can take around 5 minutes, i am trying to work the compound until it breaks down totally..

hello autogeak. i have rupes 21 mark 2 that destroyed some good quality pads. the machine usually run around speed 4. i am trying to clean the pad after every pass and i do not press very hard on the machine so i have no idea what went wrong.the only logical thing that i can think about is that...

What about the other way around? Using 5 inch plate on the 21? I am trying to avoid buying 2 machines in order to use my medium size pads and my big pads just like my Flex 3401 can do... Can you say that the 21 can handle curves in the same or close to the efficiency the 15 can? Sent from my...

Because i need a machine that can handle curves better then the 21... Sent from my E5823 using Tapatalk

so, i am going to pick up "rupes big foot 15 mark 2" in an addition to my FLEX 3401 . i plan to use the machine for covering large areas and curvy areas. i know that the 21 is better on large areas but i can buy only one machine... my question is: can i use the 6 inch plate on the big foot...

OK, i will try to get an answer some place else. thank you for your replay.
