New polisher quandry.......

[512detail]

No.... I hit the polisher page and saw it again..................

Ron I`m kind of in the same boat as you. I just sold my slicks and had intended on buying the mark II but I just don`t polish enough cars as it is right now. ( honestly I think I could use a Master Blaster more than a new polisher)

The Nano for me was more of a guilty pleasure buy from xmas bonus money i planned on putting into my srt.

I keep waiting for someone to tell us they`re shipping soon!

Are the new rupes smoother and quieter? Being I have a rupes 21, griots 21 and rupes 15. The only thing I want is either more power or more smoothness. So is the 15 mark II smoother or the 21 mark II more powerful then the griots?

why can`t i see the second page

I do feel the MKII is more powerful then the BOSS now and it has a different "sound" to it. From my understanding the mechanicals of the MKII are the same as the original so I`m not sure why it feels smoother to some, but I didn`t really notice it. It does run at a higher speed when comparing the same speed setting to the original so that could be why.

Well you have to ask yourself do you want to pay the price now or that crazy listed price that`s marked out to make you buy it right now? haha

Thank you!

Looks like my Rupes 21 will be up for sale and a new guy will take it`s place.

Do you know if the Kamikaze plates fit the new polishers?

[Poorboy]

For some reason I bounced that idea over 7 years ago. But I`ll be darned if I remember why...........

what ever happened to Festool?

It used to be billed as the best machine and now i can`t even find one on line

I loved the idea of da/rotary switchable

[The Guz]

So you have had enough time to think about it . What are you going to get?

I h ave no experience with these plates so I can`t say directly, howecer I do know that the Mark IIs use the same backing plates as the 1st Gen machines.
