    Robert sent me a couple of pictures of his recent work using the Rupes and the results looked phenomenal. I think Robert told me he picked up a Rupes Kit after testing it out here last week when we did the extreme makeover on the 1987 Monte Carlo...

    In fact, here's you and Robert putting the Rupes through their paces...




    Adam and Robert goofing off...





    Robert working thin panels with the LHR75 Rupes Air Orbital Polisher...









    And of course, the results were nothing short of amazing...





    Most of the comments I heard that night was how smooth and vibration free the Rupes polishers are...

    We'll be using Rupes Polishers at both of my next Detailing Boot Camp Classes. At my classes you get a chance to use all the cool tools, kind of a try before you buy opportunity...

    Mike you are correct Robert did pick up the kit . It looks we're goofing off but we're doing serious product testing .
