Continued....
This class goes over all the RUPES long stroke orbital polishers, pads and product including the new RUPES LK 900E Mille 5mm Gear-driven Orbital Polisher and the RUPES LHR 19E Rotary Polisher.
In the front is the RUPES LHR 19E Rotary Polisher. Behind it is the RUPES LK 900E Mille 5mm Gear-driven Orbital Polisher
Like we do for ALL our classes, both classes held here at Autogeek and for our Roadshow Classes, we bring in a variety of cool cars for the class to train on.
For the Friday class, the focus was on proper techniques for,
- Evaluating the finish.
- diagnosing the defects.
- Doing a Test Spot.
- Using the RUPES BigFoot paint polishing system to undo the damage and restore a swirl-free, show car finish.
For the Saturday class, these are the topics covered,
- Wet sanding.
- Edge work using iBrid Nano polishers.
- Removing sanding marks.
- Polishing out swirl and hologram free.
- Sealing the paint.
For the Friday class we have a Streetrod and a Muscle car, both with basecoat/clearcoat paint systems like the car in your garage or driveway. And both have horrible swirls and scratches....
1947 Ford Streetrod
1967 Chevelle
This car has the factory 427 BBC with dual quad carburetors and 4-Speed
Now take a closer look.... the 1947 Ford offers a real challenge due to all the CURVED body panels.
On the other hand, the 1967 Chevelle has very simple flat panels with a lot of tight intricate areas to polish.
Together, these two cars provide a great hands-on experience to learn the RUPES paint polishing system.

Saturday is the Advanced Class were we go over doing edge work, (working thin panels and intricate areas), as well as wet sanding, using rotary buffers and then back to orbital polishers to finish out swirl-free.
This is also what I call,
The art of polishing paint
Not as many pictures on Saturday, but enough that you can easily see there simply is no sitting in our classes. People learn best by doing, not sitting.
Here you can see the class learns to use tools like 3M Blue Vinyl Tape to protect raised body lines and edges before sanding. The blue tape is also a visual indicator while sanding because a raised body line can disappear when it's covered with sanding slurry.
Here's Jason sharing the RUPES LHR 19E Rotary Polisher and the correct way to remove sanding marks to restore a clear, glossy finish.
Everyone is hands-on in our classes....
Time to wipe down, de-tape and prep for sealing with P808 Protective Sealant
Again, sorry, no pictures of the sealing step...
