Just an heads up för you guys that are in the place of a new polisher. 15% is a good one I think.
Sorry to say when looked closer that the Rupes is not in this code either. Thought it where since the ad picture was on a rupes :(
Hope it can help someone maybe though...
Oh boy!Quote:

Still...how much longer can I live without a BOSS15? And and and...oh, there`s just no end to this stuff :o
EDIT: Oh [crap] once more...Individual Griot`s Polishers are not included either. OK, an excuse to not buy buffer#11 or...12..or whatever it`d be. My VISA emits a sigh of relief..
I’m still waiting for Autopia to advertise the preorder of the Rupes Mille. It’s up on the AG site, but I’ve got GCs for Autopia.
If you`re in the market for a BOSS15, let me know!Quote:

And that it`s so much restrictions to sales codes on rupes USA. Because where I live we have those at sales from now and then. And we don`t have as near as much sales otherwise on detailing products. For an example the Polish Angel Sweden has had a 15% of the Rupes for about a month now.
The new cordless Flex seems to be released about the same time in mid march. But there it`s only the charger that is the difference if that not is that the charger is both 110v and 240v from the same. And the cord to that one is the difference. The thing about the cordless Flex is the weight of them. Meghan at autogeek has said that it`s not that much of a difference to the corded ones. But where I can preorder them they claim that it`s weight is up to tripple the weight to the corded. Will see which has the right information about it. And the price here is the double and that makes it a no option for me at least as a hobbyist. Milwaukee has released a cordless polisher that may be an option if I wants one. Sorry for rambling around.
ShakingHorizons- Thanks, but too late. Appreciate it though.
SWETM- Just wanted to thank you for the heads-up. I did get a BOSS15 (starter kit) ordered, well..I *think* I did...my VISA got flagged/declined as "suspicious activity" and I`ll have to sort it all out Monday when Autopia has humans working.
Now all I need is a Rupes iBrid Nano...or two...and I`ll be done with polishers for this lifetime.
I think the ibird was one of the best purchase decisions I`ve made. It gets used on every detail. Great time saver.Quote:

I have seen that you can buy only the long neck or the short neck bare. If you have one of the ibrid nano before you can ad one of these to get a little more versitale. Don`t know if it`s needed or the cost of it is worth it to get. But maybe those who have one can shime in if it`s needed in certain situations. Just to ad that it`s really bare as no battery or any backing plates or anything else that comes with the ibrid nano delux kit.
OK, Paul took care of me, order went through.

But when I *do* need to polish something with a unit in-between the Rupes Mini and the Cyclos, the BOSS15 oughta be a perfect upgrade from my GG6.Quote:

As you`ve noted before, my general aversion to this stuff makes it odd that I even detail at all! I`m gonna try improving my outlook on the whole enterprise by improving the processes and equipment.

Hope that 3" works as well for you as my GG Pneumatic works for me (their older 3" electric is, uhm...a paperweight). Heh heh, that "as it works for me" might not be saying much as I *did* get the Rupes Mini and am still thinking about the Nano :o but it`s still been worth the cost.Quote:
