The Brand

Rupes

RUPES is an Italian maker of professional power tools, founded in Milan in 1947, with its operational headquarters at Vermezzo, near Milan. Its stated mission is to develop electric, pneumatic and low-voltage tools and dust extraction that improve users' working conditions, and its range runs from sanders and grinders to dust-extraction systems. For detailers it is best known for BigFoot, the long-throw random orbital polishing system it introduced in 2010 with 15mm and 21mm orbits, together with colour-coded D-A pads and compounds made to work as one system. RUPES holds ISO 9001:2015 certification for polishing and sanding systems and their consumables.

At The Drivers HQ we stock RUPES online with UK delivery and in our Ilkeston shop: BigFoot polishers corded and cordless, D-A foam, microfibre and wool pads, compounds and polishes, and X-Cut sanding discs. Popular choices include the BigFoot LHR15 Mark V, the D-A Ultra Fine Pad and the D-A Coarse Microfibre Pad.

RUPES BigFoot polishers

LHR15 Mark V. The BigFoot LHR15 Mark V is a corded random orbital polisher with a 15mm orbit and a 125mm backing plate: 500W, 3,000 to 5,200rpm, 2.35kg and a 9m cable. RUPES fitted POLYSYNTHEC composite gears that need less lubrication, and says noise is down 47% on earlier models. It comes as the machine only, the BAS Kit with a first set of pads, compounds and cloths, or the 17-piece LUX Kit. RUPES gives five years' warranty when the polisher is registered after purchase. The earlier LHR15 Mark III is also listed.

Cordless iBrid. The HLR15 iBrid (15mm orbit) and HLR21 iBrid (21mm orbit, for broad panels) come as kits with two 18V 5Ah batteries and a dual charger; RUPES quotes up to 40 minutes per battery at full power under its stated conditions. The HLR75 iBrid Mini has a 12mm orbit and a 75mm plate for tight shapes and spot repairs, with two 18V 2.5Ah batteries and a charger. Mains use needs the optional power supply.

Gear driven, rotary and sanding. The LK900E Mille is a 900W gear-driven polisher with a 5mm orbit: the drive forces both rotation and orbit, for strong cutting with low heat build-up. The LH19E is a 2.2kg rotary with anti-vibration loop and side handles, and the LHR12E Duetto is a 12mm orbit machine for both sanding and polishing.

Shop by type: dual action polishers, cordless polishers, forced rotation polishers and rotary polishers.

RUPES pads, compounds and sanding discs

RUPES pads, compounds and sanding discs

RUPES colour-codes its D-A system so pad and compound match: blue for heavy cutting, yellow for fine polishing, white for ultra-fine finishing. Its D-A microfibre pads are made larger than the backing plate to protect the edge.

One step and specialist. UNO Protect is a polish and sealant in one, containing polymer, silicone and carnauba, for light defects on rotary, dual action or gear-driven machines; RUPES quotes up to 90 days' protection. XC-2 Xtra Cut is a fast-cutting compound for gelcoat, hard paint and high-solid industrial finishes. The sample pack holds four 125ml bottles to try the range.

Sanding. X-Cut foam-backed discs sand wet or dry before polishing, 20 to a pack: 125mm in P1500, P2000 and P3000, and 75mm in P1500, P2000 and P3000. Soft interface pads in 125mm and 75mm let the disc follow curved panels.

Shop by type: polishing pads, compounds and polishes and wet sanding discs.
