RUPES Nano vs. 2000 grit sand scratches

[Accumulator]

Seems like the perfect tool for the sort of (spot-)correction I do, and for cleaning up certain suspension pieces a lot easier. But I`m not gonna pre-order, and I just might wait to be *certain* that the early-adaptors aren`t just beta-testing a v1.0.

Rupes Nano? I thought it was called the I-brid or something like that. It looks like something that would be SO useful, even if I only used it for side view mirrors and bumpers.

It is the RUPES BigFoot Nano w/ IBrid. IBrid technology is what allows the tool to run on both battery and plug-in, and it allows it to produce equal power on both modes. The BigFoot Nano is the first RUPES product to use IBrid technology.

I cannot wait for the production model either. We had a number of Nano`s at SEMA, but these are all handbuilt, pre-production prototypes. The balance and performance of the production models will be improved ))

I have used mine a few times and so far so good. With the rotary tool you cannot avoid splatter. In orbital mode much less. The tool is very powerful so use caution with the rotary tool (at 5000 rpm you do some damage quickly). It is a great product but takes a bit of a learning curve to get used to. It will remove 1500 grit sanding marks with the blue pad and blue coarse compound (the pads and polishes are colour coordinated so super easy to use). The compound finishes very well (LSP ready so far). I tried a few times with rotary tool and yellow pad and polish combo. It really delivered a great at shine ( did this on underside of the trunk). The paint was super glossy and reflected the new car shine like it left the factory (the car is a 2001).

Now if Rupes will just ship us some longnecks, please!

Will the shortneck be phased out if found to be the undesired model?
