Isn't he the chemist from Optimum? seen him in few videos on YT.

I got a vert GT and i thought 3 days (8 hours each)for everything and the coating was a long time.
Good looking ride, keep it shiny!

Hehe trust me when I started I said at most 2-3 days because of my OCD,
but Rupes LHR15 didn't agree with that and I spent more time on each panel
than I hoped for.

Now it's no longer at a significant disadvantage when putting the same polishers with the same pads in the same weak areas on the panel, it's worth the modification for me.
That sounds great! I also got mine today I ordered 2 just in case and installed one,
It sound like it made an improvement but, is it an improvement that replaces the need
for a forced rotation DA like the Rupes Mille?
Meaning is it going to correct faster than before and also replaces the need for a forced rotation DA?

Just get the Mille and be done with stalling. It comes with 5 and 6" backing plates.

I know right? Heck up until recently, I wasn’t aware about so many people having what seems like a common issue with the Rupes MKll & lll stalling so often.. I thought that was a 1st gen. problem.
I also find it odd that such a big production has to be made to source a simple washer to fit on the Rupes backing plate... Meanwhile Griots gives you 2 washers included for free with their long throw DA polishers. I personally don’t use them because my G21 doesn’t have an issue with stalling and has yet to meet defects I couldn’t remove with relative ease.

Yeah I am for sure, just want to know how much of an improvement the KB washer adds to the machine.
