FAQs

Can I use this on a rotary polisher?

While optimized for the BigFoot random orbital system, it can be used with rotary machines; however, lower speeds and careful monitoring of paint temperature are required.

Does this remove deep scratches?

It excels at removing swirl marks and fine to moderate scratches. Deeper scratches that have penetrated the clear coat may require wet sanding.

How long should I polish per section?

Typically, you should work the compound until it becomes translucent and provides a clear residue, which usually takes 3-5 passes depending on the paint hardness.

Is this safe for ceramic coated vehicles?

This is a corrective polish that will remove existing ceramic coatings; only use this if you intend to re-apply a protective coating afterwards.

Do I need to wash the car after polishing?

It is recommended to wipe the surface down with an IPA (Isopropyl Alcohol) spray to remove polishing oils before applying a wax or sealant.

Troubleshooting

Compound is dusting excessively

Reduce the amount of product used per section and ensure the pad is not saturated.

Product is difficult to wipe off

Apply less product or work on a smaller surface area to prevent the polish from drying on the paint.

Not achieving desired cut

Check that the pad is clean and consider increasing the pressure or decreasing the arm speed during the polishing cycle.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent balance between cutting performance and finishing
  • Compatible with a wide range of paint systems
  • Formulated to minimize pad clogging for longer usage
  • Easy wipe-off reduces labor time after polishing

Cons

  • Requires proper technique to avoid paint damage
  • Limited to 250ml, which may be insufficient for full-vehicle correction on multiple cars
  • Best results are achieved when used specifically with the Rupes BigFoot backing pads and machine system

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For optimal results, ensure the vehicle surface is thoroughly washed and decontaminated with a clay bar or chemical decon spray before starting. The Rupes BigFoot system is compatible with all random orbital and gear-driven polishers. When storing the product, keep the bottle tightly capped in a cool, dry environment away from direct sunlight to preserve the chemical integrity of the polishing gels. After use, ensure all pads are cleaned immediately with a dedicated pad cleaner or compressed air to prevent dried compound from hardening, which could scratch the paint during future use.
