    btw, anyone ever see this DA before? crazy how fast it eats defects up and seems to be a juiced up/on steroids version of what's currently out...


    mark, what forced rotation polishers have you currently owned and still have?

    that looks like a Wizard polisher. I wouldn't say its much butter then every other copy cat out there, I'm more concerned what made the swirls? the lights can play tricks and look extreme but are all really just like scratches.

    also on the subject of the Rupes, ive owned them all up to the new mkIII I didn't like them because of the feel in my hands with the head grip and the trigger. the new model made changes to these and at SEMA I enjoyed the overall feel more then the last models so maybe ill give it another go.

    So do you own one or just tried it out at SEMA?


    Edit: I see, up to does not mean including.
