Rupes Rotary Smartfix System Double Sided Pad | Blue Coarse Foam

The all new RUPES Smartfix Rotary system is now available at the Clean Garage. 

To utilize this system you will need a Smartfix connector(available in 5/8"or M14) and Smartfix dual sided pads.

The RUPES SMARTFIX system is a quick, tool-free solution for mounting double-sided rotary pads. Instead of using threads, the pad simply presses onto the dedicated SMARTFIX backing plate and locks with a secure mechanical click. To remove it, just pull it off—no spinning, no tools, no wasted time.

This innovative system eliminates the risk of cross-threading and over-tightening, while providing a stable and reliable connection during heavy-duty polishing. Designed for professionals in detailing, body shops, and marine environments, SMARTFIX streamlines pad changes and maximizes workflow efficiency.

The SMARTFIX Coarse Foam Pad is the most aggressive pad in our Double Side foams range. Made from a new high-performance blue foam, it has been specifically engineered to deliver the best results when used with a double side system. This pad ensures powerful defect removal and fast elimination of severe imperfections and sanding marks on painted surfaces. Thanks to its waffle face design, the pad provides excellent rotational stability while minimizing heat build-up generated by rotary motion.

The unique structure also enhances polishing comfort, as the waffle pattern reduces the total surface contact, keeping the pad working at cooler temperatures and lowering the risk of overheating the paint. The SMARTFIX Coarse Foam Pad is designed to work seamlessly with the BigFoot LH19E and any other rotary polisher. For maximum cutting performance, we recommend pairing it with our Rotary Coarse Compound or XC2 or with new Rupes marine compounds XC100 and XC300.
