I've owned my Rupes 21 for about a year, one day it just turned off while mid panel. I took the handle off and inspected the electronics, everything looked fine. Cleaned the brushes and motor...

I'm almost finished with my first gallon of Pink Soap, it's not bad for the price. I prefer Shampoo Plus or Optimum Car Wash for maintenance washes. and reset or hyper wash for pre detail washes.

I was a Jaguar/Land Rover tech for 10 years. I can say from personal experience, the 80's to mid 90's models have a strange funky smelling interior. My 90's Audi had the same funky smell.

Sole prop is good, but if something happens you can get taken too the cleaners

I formed an LLC to protect my personal assets.

Either way make sure you invest in proper business insurance

This product is awesome!!!!! I've used it as a detail spray on matte and satin wraps, waterless wash on dusty cars that have been sitting collecting dust. The finish comes out clean every time, even...

I had both the Flex and Rupes. I sold the Flex after struggling to get good results.

I personally prefer the high pad speed of the Rupes and less need to apply downward pressure. With the right...

I've wanted to try M101 for a while as well, but it's expensive compared to M100/M105.

I used the Rupes UHS pad and polish, nothing else. I tried Sonax EX 04-06 and Menz PF2500, both removed the oxidation but couldn't remove the swirls as well as the Rupes system.

this Honda came in after a drive through car wash sprayed cleaners on the paint causing instant staining. there was also an a large amount of swirls and oxidation all over the paint. the customer had...

It's nerve racking! the days fly by, the work comes in waves, my calander is empty one day then full the next. It is definitely a learning process.

The fender must have been repainted at some point. I was a Land Rover tech for 10 years and have never seen factory paint do this.
