Product Description
The Rupes BigFoot iBrid Nano, in short, is a small handheld polisher that will allow you to polish tough to reach spaces. It is the first buffer of it's kind that gives you unparalleled access to tight spaces in a battery powered polisher. iBrid allows the user to switch between rotary, 3mm random orbital, and 12mm random orbital actions very quickly. This gives you an unparalleled amount of versatility and power for any job you throw at it. Heavy imperfections, light imperfections, swirls, RIDS, it really does not matter, iBrid will remove these imperfections with ease! Just press the lock button at the top of the head of the polisher to release the backing plate. You can then attach any of the backing plates you desire, pads (1.25" and 2" sizes), brushes, accessories, etc. The LUX Kit Long and LUX Kit Short both come with pads, polishes, backing plates, and a brush to help you clean hard to reach areas such as areas on your paint, near headlights, side skirts, wheels, etc. If you do not want to pick up all these accessories, the Long Neck and Short Neck sizes come at a lower price point, without any pads, brushes, backing plates, etc. You can however pick up any accessories you desire individually here. The compact and lightweight design make this unit easy to hold with only one hand and the start/stop lever is found on the handle, making starting and stopping very easy. The on/off speed control dial features five working speeds (0-5 at 2000-5000 RPMs) and a soft start control. Everything we have listed seems pretty amazing right? Well there is more! Have you ever been burdened by a corded polisher and wished you had a battery pack? Well the iBrid has made that wish come true. iBrid can not only be used with a cord, but with a battery as well! Each unit comes with a "Plug & Play Power Supply" which allows it to act like any other corded tool, but it also comes with two Li-ION battery packs and a battery charger. 22-24 minutes is all you will need to charge the battery and each charge will give you 30 minutes of run time under full load. The two battery packs allow you to use one in the tool, while charging the other. You will always have a battery charged and ready to switch out. Speaking of switching the batteries out, this is as easy as it is to switch out a backing plate. On the base of the unit there is two clips that when depressed will release the battery. Pull the old one out and slide the new one in, it is that easy! LED indicators on the unit and the battery charger will keep you informed on how much power you have left in the battery pack you are using, and when your backup is charged and ready to go. If you have a larger polisher and are looking for something to tackle small areas this is perfect for you. This will be an incredibly effective tool for motorcycle details, spoilers, front bumpers, side mirrors, door handles, air intakes, side scoops, etc. the Rupes BigFoot iBrid Nano will be an amazing addition to your detailing collection!Note: The L DLX and DLX are now the LUX Kit Long and LUX Kit Short. This is the same great units, but the soft case has been updated to a hard case.

Professional Detailer Reviews
Overall, we have found the Rupes iBrid Nano to be a welcome addition to the Rupes lineup. The tool certainly has its limitations, but it enables us to get into areas that were previously not accessible with larger machines.

Customer Reviews
This is a must have for any professional detailer. It provides a much more precise finish during paint correction of contoured areas and is our go to for spot correction of small defects.
Amazing machine love it and im glad I pick the long neck version! At my detailing business all of our polishers are Rupes
This was quite a splurge, bought the short version. Right up front, a part of me wishes I'd sprung for the long neck. In trying to do engine bay polishing, I quickly discovered why the long neck would have been better. Despite that, the device itself is great. I found it to have more than enough power even running on batteries, and it cuts very nicely. It will allow me to polish areas I could have only gotten to by hand in the past, so I am very much looking forward to using it. Now that I have this in the full case, at some point in the future I'll get a stand alone long neck as well. For now, this'll do just fine.
