    No, I purchased a 5" backing plate for the 21.
    I have a 5" backing plate on all my machines.
    I only have 5" pads so it makes it easy.

    Your detailed post about the 2022 Tesla Model 3 and the meticulous detailing process you've described is seriously impressive. It's clear that you take great pride in maintaining your car to perfection, and the results must be outstanding. Speaking of Tesla, I've been contemplating buying one myself. Recently, I came across some images of the Tesla interior, and I have to say, it looks absolutely stunning. The combination of modern design and advanced technology is a game-changer. What are your thoughts on Tesla's interior design and features?

    Did your Rupes 21 come with a 5" backing plate, or did you swap the 6" backing plate that came with it for a 5" backing plate?

    I replaced the 6" backing plate on the 21 with https://www.carpro-us.com/polish-pad...backing-plate/
    I only have 5" pads now. One size to stock. I like the 5" BP on the 21!

    The Rupes 21 comes with a 6? backing plate. It has a 21mm throw.
    I swapped the 6? BP for a 5? BP.
    I like the feel of a 5? plus it works better for curved areas.
