I have been using the Rupes UHS for a few years now and it truly earned the name “Easy Gloss” and have become my go-to one-step.
Cutting Ability
Easily removes light to moderate imperfections with the UHS Pad. You can easily increase the cut with a microfiber pad, or reduce the cut with a softer foam like the Rupes Yellow Pad.
Finish
UHS must stand for U Have to See, because it finishes down glooooossy! For most finishes I can go straight to the protection stage.
Working Time
Has a broad range of cycle time, giving you more freedom to polish to the level needed. Polish is very smooth and easy to use.
Ease of Removal
I’ve used many polishes of the years, and this is hands down the EASIEST polish to remove, no pressure needed which is great for those delicate finishes that can get micro-marring just from removing the polish.
UHS Pads – They seem VERY stiff when you first use them, but don’t worry, after you get some product and start getting heat into the pad, it softens right up. Enough to make some body contours and easily move around the finish. And with pads ranging from 1.25″ to 7″ you can get into any area needed.
Overall
In detailing, often the industry jumps n the next new thing and while there isn’t as much hype around the Rupes UHS as there was in the beginning, it is still a staple in my arsenal while new products have come and gone.
