My new Rupes turned up today!































The first thing you notice is how light the unit is, with or without the battery. It's also butter smooth, lacking the clattery wind down of my ShineMate's.

After a short break, I'm again providing blog posts for Detailing Shed. While these are not credited with my name, rather the business owner, I wrote and collaborated with the team to arrive at the final result.

The latest post is a Bilt Hamber range overview. While I could easily write multiple pages on the topic, I've had to dial that back to make it approachable for all readers rather than just for diehards like me.

For Bilt Hamber, I've tried to convey what each product does and why you would use it. Even for someone who lives and breathes detailing, I find Bilt Hamber's product descriptions rather confusing. Hopefully the article provides a better understanding of the brand and its products.

I bought a RUPES 7 inch sander/polisher new in 1977. I've worked the hell out of it and it still works like a charm. Great gear!
