    Rupes Mille and LHR19E Rotary

    Looks like they're available for pre-order on the AG site. Anyone take the plunge yet?

    No plunge for me yet, but I will say, this looks to be an incredible polisher. Ill stick with my PE14, but the price point is quite attractive especially considering the RPM range and 30 foot power cord!

    I'd really like to get my hands on one to try out!

    Really really want the both of them---Still have to pay off some of the funds that got me started in this business. The second I pay off---gonna get both!

    Probably be a few months before I can pull the trigger. But I am getting them.

    I do have a pause---If I understand, you will need to get dedicated Mille pads and polisher. That to me is a concern.

    I hope that some other pads, say the LC force hybrids will work on the Mille. They work great on the 3401!

    They sure are some sexy looking tools though!

    Tom - where did you read that Just curious as that would be disappointed if you were "required" to use their pads. I have a fair investment in 100+ pads and would like to use them with this polisher if I opt to purchase it someday.

    Come to think of it, I'll ask Ronin47 if he is using Mille pads and polishes.

    Re: Rupes Mille and LHR19E Rotary

    Yikes that can get costly!!! I believe it is recommended that you use the entire Rupes collection as a system for best results, but I have seen detailers get great results with other pads and products. It will be interesting to see what kind of results detailers get with non rupes pads and products with the Mille.
