    Rupes Nano vs headlights

    Nano with 30mm pad and 12mm orbit ext (could have switched to the 70mm package but didnt)

    Dp aio headlight polish via rupes blue pad

    For protection since it was my neighbor, i went with essence on the rupes yellow pad afterwards to protect it better than optiseal etc.









    10 mins maybe (to clean, clay tape polish remove admire) prolly 6 or 7 with the 70mm ext

    This thing, lol. I`m in love.

    Nice work! I so wish I could afford and get one of these...
    I`d probably get a 15 or 21 Rupes first though. I`ll keep chugging along with my beloved GG6 for now!

    I started with a duetto, december 2013 I believe.
    Actually spend the last dollar to my name on the duetto starter kit and i never looked back.

    Will get a mark ii with xmas bonus money now since the tire happened.

    I`m very satisfied with my purchase.

    I honestly didn`t expect it to be This good.

    Rupes outdid themselves.

    And once again, gotta give thanks to ACC for connect...those double bonus points definitely lessened the Nano sticker shock.

    Tuf buf black wool is another to try
    It`s suppose to be a step up from the LC purple wool that comes with the McKee 37 headlight AIO kit

    Gotcha. Stay in school. Fight for that good job. Pick up some papers.
    Makes for nice wall art.


    Then you have disposable income to play with fancy new toys

    Nice! What are your degrees in? I`ll be rocking my mean green up here in DFW starting in the fall as an honors student studying chemistry with a minor in biochemistry. The current plan is to follow that with medical school to become an anesthesiologist. I have had great respect and admiration for anesthesiologists since having major surgeries on my knee almost 4 years ago and would love to help others through being one myself!
