1. Have a look at this chart - Foam vs. Microfiber vs. Wool: Polishing Pad Comparisons - RUPES USA and this video for info on the various pads and relative performance comparisons YouTube
BUMP! The info in the first post of this thread has been updated with current contact information and new policies. A lot has changed in the 3 years since RUPES purchased Cyclo Toolmakers to form...
For future reference - in case anyone stubles on this thread. For some reason I am unable to add a signature here on AGO and can't edit the sticky at the top of the RUPES section:
If it is indeed under a year old and its anything related to a defect then we cover it 100% under warranty including shipping both ways. Just need to contact us to get the process started:

Bingo. The 3mm attachment is designed primarily for sanding purposes (with the PSA plate and P2000/P3000 daisy discs). I've also used it with the brushes for slightly less aggressive cleaning where...
Effectively defeats the purpose (on the mini specifically) of the design. If you notice the tool has almost no overhang, thats so you can work right up to the edges of surfaces that have a...
Aside from the things you listed there is a rubberized grip on the underside of the Mark II head, the chassis is also redesigned for the new motor - its not outwardly obvious unless you look at a...
Well, thats definitely a first and I'm sorry for the delay in seeing this.... SEMA has me running around like crazy so my time to jump online and check the forums is pretty limited. Always best to...
Answer is going to be pretty much the same as above - hard to say. Neither will stall on a flat surface, it would be entirely dependent on the degree of the curve or protrusion causing the stall,...
Hard question to answer without seeing it in person - will depend entirely on the depth of the curve or protrusion thats causing a rotation stall, your technique, etc.
Marina - its covered by a 1 year warranty against manufactures defects regardless of how much use, however a cosmetic issue (you said smudges on the body in your first message) without documentation...
All of our plates are manufactured in Milan in the same factory, same batches, and literally thousands at the same time, so there wouldn't be any variance in location. A plate in Europe would be the...
Really depends - the nano is going to be far more versatile, but costs far more. You can still get a lot done with the LHR75E mini so it comes down to budget and how crazy you want to get about...
The TA50 is the tool its always been, so no changes from when Mike wrote his book. Of course we still designate the TA50 as a sander and thats what its designed to be, however there are plenty of...
Yep... 500ml proved to be an unpopular size and was discontinued. We have the 250ml and 1 liter and with the launch of the nano 150ml, which is perfect if you only need a small amount.
I've had a lot of success with UHS on headlights - the only issue I've encountered is if the speed is too high the surface can get hazy, but thats more to do with the pad than the compound. You...
The plates will last varying amounts of time depending on how they're used. Some people are really hard on them and can kill a plate inside a year, others go...
Obviously I'm not eligible to win :) but how about those who store their cars for the winter? My 1967 C10 custom didn't even go out in the rain, so when winter came and she'd be sleeping under a...
