Going to purchase a Rupes Bigfoot. Any sifu can recommend should I get the 21" or 15"? If get 21" can change the backing plate to 15"?
Anymore gatherings that sifus sekalian can show a newbie detailer on the tips and tricks on paint correction? |

Personally, I like the LHR15 over the LHR21. I've tried both before deciding & the 21mm throw was too much for my liking/preference. Furthermore, I like using the smaller pads.Anymore gatherings that sifus sekalian can show a newbie detailer on the tips and tricks on paint correction? Yes you can get the extra LHR15 backing plate to use with smaller pads but, just FYI, the throw would still be 21mm. There's one DIT (Do It Together) in the pipeline....trying to sort out the details. Stay tuned. |

QUOTE(alexng2208 @ Nov 29 2013, 04:16 PM) its KP600 in bright orange. i forgot what is it. That would be the B&D. i doubt its "amazing" torque can remove anything more than a housefly LOL....Used to be 'just for waxing only' but you'd be surprised what some of the current polishes can do on that machine. Even my Bosch is now able to remove sanding marks, which was quite impossible to do during 'those times'....hehehe.... Btw, wanted to ask you for long time already but keep delaying and forgetting. How come got *extra* pads in the bag you gave back ah? This post has been edited by KrisMas: Nov 29 2013, 04:23 PM |

It's pretty nice working with Meg's UC, UP and UPW. UP smells like the vanilla filling in twinkies, while UPW smells like white chocolate.

Thanks for the advice sifu KrisMas ! i think ill go with the LHR15 too because the other is quite big so hard to reach smaller or curvier places.Yes you can get the extra LHR15 backing plate to use with smaller pads but, just FYI, the throw would still be 21mm. There's one DIT (Do It Together) in the pipeline....trying to sort out the details. Stay tuned. How far away roughly is the Do it Together? My plan is to do paint correction myself, apply Opticoat 2.0, and finally with Swissvax. So really need to learn step by step and do it carefully. Youtube & google can only teach you that much, practical and hands on is more important i feel. |
