Rupes LD30 Pneumatic Orbital Denibber.
The Rupes LD30 Pneumatic Orbital Denibber is a super-strategic sanding machine. Its orbit-action is precise: 1.5 millimeters in diameter to be exact.  Consequently, follow-up polishing requirements are kept to an absolute minimum. Max speed is 7,500 orbits per minute, enabling the LD30 to make short work of tiny defects, dirt nibs, paint sags, and runs. It can also level blobs of touch-up paint with ease. In fact, I've seen hoods pockmarked with dozens of rock chips that were first filled with blobs of touch-up paint, and then leveled using the LD30.

Use with stick-on or hook-style sanding rosettes.
The Rupes LD30 is supplied with both vinyl and hook-style backing plates, allowing you to use any type of sanding disc or rosette you choose. We offer several grades of PSA (peel & stick adhesive) sanding rosettes. Includes a hook & loop interface pad, which allows for improved contour sanding on curved surfaces.

Polish tight, small, or very confined areas.
Although not designed as a polisher, the Rupes LD30 can be successfully used to polish very small parts & areas (my friend Richard Lin regularly uses his LD30 to polish automotive paint & trim). A variety of buffing pads can be found here.

Includes a superb inline air regulator.
The LD30 tops out at 7,500 RPM, which is way too much speed for many situations. To adjust speed on-the-fly, a Rupes 9P03.060 In-Line Air Regulator is included with the machine. This regulator requires 1-3/4 turns to fully open or close, making it very easy to dial in the exact amount of air flow for any tool.

Add Sanding Discs or Rosettes. (save 15%)
Mirka Waterproof Sanding Rosettes and Polarstar Spot Repair Discs are designed to strategically deal with small paint imperfections. Use them to eliminate dirt nibs, sags & runs, touch-up blobs, and random scratches. Peel & stick adhesive (PSA) sanding rosettes are available in 5 different grades: P1500, P2000, P2500, P3000, P5000. Ten discs per sheet. More info: Discs & Rosettes


Add a spare backing plate or interface pad.  (save 15%)
Having spare backing plates & interface pads on hand is smart. Rupes 9P06.060 Vinyl and 9P06.061 Velcro Backing Plates are direct replacements for the originals. For improved contourability of discs and rosettes, the 9P06.062 Interface Pad is a must-have.
