bigfoot innovation
The evolution of BigFoot continues.  Built to handle any detailing situation, the latest BigFoot Mark III Polisher is the new frontier of detailing.

Built with everything that made the BigFoot Polishers legendary in the detailing community, the 'Mark III' has taken on the successful elements of the original 'BigFoot' machines and improved upon them. The RUPES Bigfoot MKIII Random Orbital Polisher will take your detailing possibilities to the next level of perfection.

RUPES is an Italian company which has been manufacturing precision tools since 1947. RUPES set the stage for the detailing industry when it developed the most high-tech orbital polisher the world had seen with the launch of the BigFoot Polisher LHR 21ES in 2011.

Featuring an extra large 21mm orbit and a range of pads and polishes designed to take maximum advantage of this, the LHR 21ES guaranteed faster polishing time than any other system available, and allowed you to achieve a flawless hologram-free finish, without sacrificing finish quality. It spent years fine-tuning this revolutionary system, redefining paint correction for professional detailers' and enthusiasts alike. Fast forward a few years later, and RUPES has once again turned the industry upside down by making the LHR21 even better...
 

Now the new and improved BigFoot Mark III Polisher makes correcting your paint even faster than ever before!

So what's new in the Mark III Polisher?

  • Improved Ergonomics.
  • Larger Electronic Speed Control Dial.
  • New Progressive trigger.
  • Design refinements

Improved Ergonomics

Mark3-Ergonomics
The rubberized front grip of the MarkIII offers exceptional comfort for the operator while providing a non-slip surface for control. The improved rear handle also integrates rubberized surfaces for improved feel.

Two strategically placed, non-marking, tool rests provide stability when the tool is not in use as well as additional protection against unintended impact.

The continued refinement of the BigFoot random orbital platform in MarkIII reinforce its best in class reputation, making the best even better.
 

Electronic Speed Control Dial

The new electronic speed control dial allows for easy adjustment of the top speed of the polisher without requiring the operator to move his hands.The larger dial is easily adjusted with a move of the thumb.

High visibility numbers and a more positive feedback from the movement of the dial make speed changes feel more deliberate, allowing operators to select the ideal speed for the task without any interuption to the polishing process.

Progressive Trigger

Adding an additional layer of control is the new progressive trigger. Acting as a throttle to control speeds within the dial range, the progressive trigger allows the operator to make subtle adjustments for precise control without interruption of the process or need to reposition the grip to access the speed dial.

BigFoot simplifies the polishing process, substantially reducing time and producing optimum results even with just one step.

faster-machining
Faster Machining Operations
The BigFoot polisher is an amazing tool which utilizes an industry leading 21mm orbit which covers more surface area than a conventional orbital polisher. The larger orbit enables you to remove swirls, scratches, holograms and other paint defects and obtain excellent results faster and easier than any other machine. LESS steps, LESS time, LESS compound consumption and GREATER profits.
 
superior finish
Superior Finish
The goal of operators has always been achieving gloss and colour depth. In designing its polishers RUPES has taken these requirements into account to allow operators to achieve extraordinary results.
no-surface-overheating
No Surface Overheating
The random orbital movement of the BigFoot system keeps the work surface at low temperature, virtually eliminating the risk of ‘burning’ the clear coat.
 
polishing revolution
The Polishing Revolution - No Holograms  
Holograms are the marks produced by traditional polishers.  The innovative BigFoot random orbital polishing system is a revolutionary method for reducing traditional polishing times without creating holograms on any part of the painted surface.

The process is completely new and allows excellent results to be obtained in just one step, creating substantial savings in time, energy consumption and cost of consumable products. The BigFoot system is based on a large diameter random orbital movement. The long throw eliminates holograms and takes away the necessity for a second removal step, an operation that is generally necessary when traditional rotary polishing systems are used.
 
easy to use
Easy To Use       
Polishing has always been considered an operation that requires experience and skill. Inexperience may result in surfaces being damaged. RUPES has eliminated these risks. The BigFoot system is the perfect solution for the novice user or the professional in search of a flawless finish.

BigFoot’s unique design result in a tool that is light, has exceptional balance, and lack of vibration, which afford the operator complete control and maximize the manoeuvrability of the tool during the polishing operation. Normally difficult areas such as edges, contours and corners are easily handled with the operator employing a consistent and harmonious motion. With BigFoot, polishing becomes easy, comfortable and produces excellent results with less fatigue.
