Recently purchased a package w/compounds, multiple pads, you name it, etc.

Considered both Rupes & Flex. Tough decision but Griots made it simple. Have a PC 7424 that I've used for many years, but now set it up w/Chemical Guys 4" pads for tighter spots.

So far so good....

I bought the same package a couple of months ago, very happy with it.

looks great, any reason you decided on the 15 vs. the 21?

I got the Rupes 21 when it first came out and love that thing. I still grab the 7424 for alot of smaller tasks though.

Griot's 21 comes with 6" but can drop down to an optional 5" pad. My existing PC sponge / micro pads fit the 15 Boss, so that was my motivation I guess. This endeavor is strictly a DIY deal for me.

I will say with the Chemical Guy's 3 1/2" hook & loop pad for the 7424 + using 4" polishing pads made that tool a lot more effective.

Update 1/28/16 :

The long throw G15 BOSS random orbit machine is fantastic - very smooth, no vibration &
lots of power.

After a short learning curve along w/ watching Jeff Brown on Griot's youtube videos explain technique +
how & when to use their polishes, I'm very happy with my purchase.

Products are pro-quality and a big step up from what I had been using. If you are thinking Rupes
and/or Flex consider Griot's BOSS system for paint correction & polishing.
