    A few thoughts about the Rupes UHS system...

    I've done some testing recently and really like the results. However, in my opinion, the UHS compound contains durable fillers, meaning, unless you use something STRONG as a panel wipe, your results may not be true. This isn't necessarily a bad thing, as long as you know what you're working with. I've also found the UHS pads to work very good with other compounds and polishes. I'm not here to start a debate, just stating my personal thoughts.

    Re: A few thoughts about the Rupes UHS system...

    Interesting. I love the UHS combo and normally do a panel wipe on my test spot for checking work, but not the rest of the car. I haven't noticed any filling, but haven't been looking for it either. Guess I'll need more body prep solvent now.

    What other compounds and polishes have you liked with UHS pads?
