RUPES BigFoot LK 900E Mille - an innovative machine planetary polisher

The RUPES LK 900E Mille polisher performs a so-called "planetary" movement. It is a combination of eccentric movement with so-called "forced" or "fixed" rotation. Thanks to the planetary gearbox, both movements take place at the same time, i.e. eccentric and rotary, and it is not possible to separate them. In this way, unlike conventional orbital polishers with so-called "free rotation" (most polishers on the market today), the polisher does not slow down the rotation under high load, because the internal gear maintains a constant rotation depending on the set speed. Thanks to the planetary gearbox, the RUPES LK 900E Mille polisher ensures a very high correction ability even with low misalignment. The polisher allows you to adjust the speed in several steps for trouble-free work in every situation. It is suitable for polishing all types of painted and glazed surfaces on cars, boats, caravans, airplanes and motorcycles. Its use is so effective that it is comparable to top rotary polishers. The set also includes two drivers with diameters of 5" (125 mm) and 6" (150 mm). The 9 meter long cable with which the polisher is equipped will also greatly simplify your work! In addition, you can adjust the speed of the polisher in two ways - with the wheel for setting the speed on the top of the polisher and also with the progressive trigger, where you adjust the speed of the polisher simply by pressing it.

Advantages of planetary polishers compared to rotary polishers:

• Safety and gentleness - the planetary polisher does not generate as much heat as the rotary polisher, and there is no risk of intensive irreversible damage to the paint due to high temperature (so-called "burning of the paint") or its sanding.
• No holograms - the planetary movement does not create holograms, which tend to be an accompanying effect when working with a rotary polisher. The holograms must then be removed as part of the next polishing steps, and this can also be a time-consuming and technically demanding process in the way of the perfect appearance of the paint. Such a repair can take several hours even for a professional.
• Simplicity - you will master working with a planetary polisher in no time after explaining the basic work procedures, with a rotary polisher it is recommended to undergo professional training and then gather at least a few months of experience before starting to renovate the paintwork of a car.
• Perfect finish - less "aggressiveness" of planetary polishers contributes to achieving a smoother and better final result and a higher gloss with significantly less risk of additional damage to the paint.
• Meguiar's DA Microfiber Correction System - Meguiar's has developed this revolutionary system for renovating, polishing and waxing the paint, which is gradually beginning to replace traditional methods of mechanical paint restoration and is intended exclusively for safe and gentle use with a planetary polisher while maintaining 100% efficiency.
