    I have not used the RUPES system but Menzerna PF2500 on a white Lake Country Hybrid pad would be its equal.

    Shhhhhhhhh dont tell anyone but I think Mike has a thing for this pad, Polish, and machine combo!!!

    On a serious note it would be interesting to see how that Rupes system would work on a Flex and inknowninlove breaking the rules so I just might have to.

    No real reason why it wouldn't work. IMHO.

    Good demonstration of,

    • Slow arm speed.
    • How to make section passes.
    • Focus on the task at hand.
    • Using a tape-line for your test spot.


    Like I say when I autograph my Flex 3401 How To Book,


    The Flex 3401 is a BEAST!
