Thanks Chris! Things have really started to pick up since I formed the LLC. 3 Mustangs in queue, a Harley Fat Boy and maybe even a V-Rod!

Thank you! Early thoughts are great, this car came in right at the estimated 25 hours. Without the Rupes it would have been closer to 30 hours. The Rupes paired with MF pads is amazing! quick cut and finish, I almost didn't need to go through with a finishing stage. This is Porsche paint so it was soft to begin with. The hydro-tech pads didn't do so well with the Rupes. There was a lot more vibration than I would have liked but still gave a desired finish. I will probably wait to post a review until I get the rest of the Rupes pads and polishes (and the 15e as well) which I still don't have an ETA on. I have the rest of the Rupes pads (just need yellow and white for the 21e, which are the most important lol). With the Rupes polishing liquids, I am also getting a 6mm orbit Skorpio sander. I have been in contact with two people about getting them but still nothing so far. :bat:
