Not once have I used a rotary over 1500rpms and I hate that the dewalt 849x becomes excessively on lower speeds.
My question is, can the rupes rotary be effectively used at low rpms and not get hot? I swear to god I'm about to poop i'm so excited.
Yes. RUPES first innovated the double-gear reduction rotary with the LHR18. The benefits of this style is that you can double the torque (2 to 1 reduction like a transmission) and double the motor speed (better cooling). The new LHR19 is also a gear reduction rotary, and utilizes a RUPES-designed 1200 watt motor. This allows it to operate at low RPM with very little heat build up.
At the lowest speed setting, with little pressure on the progressive trigger, the tool can effectively operate as low as (around) 100 RPM.

Thanks Todd, I was really just throwing some thoughts out there, I'm no Jason Rose or Todd Helme, and I'm not experienced nor discriminating enough to be able discern those differences in pad/polish/machine, but you guys obviously can, so thanks for the explanation.

Don't get the grey tint quick Detailer confused with the brown tint quick Detailer or the results won't be as good.

Does anybody here actually use different polishes if they switch from a rotary to a 3401 to a DA? I mean besides the obvious that you might be compounding with a rotary and doing other steps with the other machines that would use different products because they are different steps. But I mean let's say you are doing the same step on different parts of the same vehicle, say using a 3401 for the large panels and a PC with a small pad for tighter areas...are you going to use a different chemical because one is forced and one free?
i tried the keramik gloss with a 3401 and it was leaving a lot of marring but that might of been because of my non ceramic paint or something else

I might have a barely used PE-14 for sale when this rotary comes out. Sounds really good! As does the Mille.
