Materials & Construction
This is a dual-power random orbital polishing tool that switches between cordless and corded operation, delivering consistent orbital action for professional-level paint and gelcoat correction without runtime interruptions.
Product Description
Why you'll want it
- Work without a cord. Run the tool on battery for mobility, or plug in when you need steady power for long jobs.
- Spare battery keeps you going. The kit includes a charger and two batteries. The 18V battery system delivers 5 Ah and gives 40 minutes of run time at full power.
- Even, steady polishing. Random orbital action gives consistent polishing for paint and gelcoat correction on your boat.
- Good timing for fall. Fall is haul-out and winter storage time. Polish your gelcoat now, so your boat is ready for spring.
What it is
The RUPES Bigfoot HLR21 iBrid Random Orbital Polisher is a polisher from RUPES, sold as a kit. The iBrid design joins cordless and corded use in a single tool. The kit includes the HLR21 tool, a charger, and two batteries.
How to use it
- Fully charge the batteries before first use.
- Attach a backing pad and a polishing pad to the HLR21.
- Run the tool on a charged battery for mobility, or connect the corded option when you need continuous runtime.
- Keep passes overlapping and evenly spaced, with light pressure, and let the orbit do the polishing.
- After each use, wipe the polisher body and pad backing. Store the tool, charger, and batteries in a dry, temperature-controlled area.
What else the job needs
Good to have on hand: a backing pad and a polishing pad, which the instructions say to attach, plus polish or compound for the work itself.
