I recently bought Uno Protect I’ve been using it on my personal vehicles and now I’m starting to offer it on customer’s vehicles let me tell you this is amazing product I will definitely recommend this to anyone 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼✌🏼
Thanks Frankie! We love hearing this kind of feedback on our products.
I found the benefits of an AIO enhancement when I first got the Rupes yellow wool pads last year. My cars only have light defects as I keep them well maintaned and using an AIO is so much quicker as once you’ve polished, your done. No IPA wipedowns then moving on to protection stages. I wait until the following weekly wash then top with a more durable sealant or favourite LSP. The yellow wool pads bring any AIO to the next levelYet to use UNO Protect but will definitely have to give it a try👍
As a weekend warrior i consume a LOT of detailing (instructional) content and these new Replies videos are sone of the best - they are succint and helpful. And i am a subscriber ;-)
PS. Please reschedule an advanced enthusiast training class.
Thanks! That’s a huge compliment. We appreciate it.
These videos are very helpful. I also learned a lot from your webinars and would like to see more of that content. Detailers need the educational content along with the product so it’s easy to understand when, how and why to use certain products. Thx
Thanks for watching and glad you’re getting value from the content. Lots more videos and webinars in the works. The good thing is we were doing webinars before the pandemic made them more commonplace and we’ll continue to do them long after things go back to normal.
I use it as a one step polish with the yellow wool pad, or 2nd step with yellow foam after the blue DA compund. The touch, finish, gloss, ease of use is crazy😍. Love it
That's great Aron! Thanks for the kind word and thank you for commenting!
Thanks Sparky! I have some Uno Protect sitting on the shelf right now. Also...thank you for calling it a sealant and not a coating.
Thank you 🙏🏻
...can’t wait to try new Rupes pads
It will be nice to see new matching Rupes clothing.
Again a fabulous tutorial on the advantages and opportunities on when to use Uno Protect.
Thanks!
Once again, thank you so much for all the information on your wonderful products!Also thank you for busting all those, sometimes ridiculous, detailing myths that caused me headaches over time.
Thanks for watching and we’ll keep putting out the content as long as great customers like yourself keep engaging with us!
@@RUPES its just pure pleasure to be in touch with the guys/company that made, and keep developing the tools you use and make smile every time!Keep going
I’m waiting for an opportunity to try this product.
You guys have the best products I’ve ever used in 39 years of detailing
Thank you!
I love the simplicity of it! Its my go to! And especially when you deliver the finished product, customers always love it! I cannot express how awesome the uno protect is! Can't wait to see what else y'all come out with!
That’s great! Thanks for sharing your feedback.
Very helpful! Thank you, products ordered.
Thank you! Glad it was helpful.
Yes I do and love it
Thanks for the tip dylan👌
I didnt knew the right use for this product ❤rupes
Thanks for watching!
Not only do I offer an AIO in an express form, but it's also UNO. Such a great product.
Awesome! That's what we like to hear... hopfully it has helped make that express package more profitable for you!
It did especially on GM black. The wipe off is awesome. I can't wait to try the new compound and polish.
from canada i love this all in one
Great! Thanks for watching.
You convinced me, I just ordered some.
It has quickly become one of our most popular products. Enjoy!
Hi. I use UNO protect and i like it very much!! Great product!! Best Regards Rupes team!
Fantastic! Thanks for using UNO and thanks for watching/commenting!
Love this product, it's my go product! High gloss, smooth finish and cuts better than you think.
What kind of pad did you use
@@kennethjoubert8036 Depends on paint type. Rupes yellow wool and Buff and Shine Uro-Fiber Pad
Im not that educated in paint its a black hyundia 2018 paint seams soft thanks for quikly answering my question
I'm a convert to the school of Rupes....
Loving your polishers and loving your products.... just picked up an ibrid nano... you can feel the quality as soon as you pick it up.
Just need to venture down the wool pad route.
What are the suggested ways of cleaning the pad between passes or panels and at the end of the job... soak in water like foam?
Thanks for watching and commenting. We actually have a great video that explains your pad cleaning questions:
ua-cam.com/video/SNdSdbtWdyk/v-deo.html
I've been wanting to try Uno Protect for a while now....just patiently waiting for some of the Canadian distributors to get some back in stock.
It’s been selling faster than we can make it... but hopefully it’ll be back in stock soon.
With this product you used both pads? Nice 👍 thanks
Can next weeks video be one on tips for polishing smaller curved areas such as bumpers?
We’ll see what we can do
Hi
I loved the video.
Is this product good for cars with paint that is is good condition, not requiring a "cut" and polished.
Also if you are in an area that has had a lot of rain and you find when the weather clears that you have rain spots in the paint that do not come out with a mild polished what is the best way to get rid of and neutralise the calcium deposits?
Pleas do a video on this and also let me know the best solution.
Regards
Mike
Thanks for watching Mike. That is a lot of questions, so I'll answer them in order.
It is good for cars in good condition as a light maintenance polish. Just choose a finer pad, like our yellow or white foams to reduce the cutting action.
Water spots can vary in severity from region to region based on the environment and what is in your rain water, so the solution is not universal. For minor spotting a mild surface cleaner or quick detailer can work, for slightly more stubborn spots you can find dedicated water spot removers (RUPES does not make one of these) and in more extreme cases compound and polish may be required, even sanding in very extreme cases.
Love the product and am very happy with the performance, but why is it pink it stains the pads 😢
My local detail supply store is selling this like crazy!I was lucky to get one of the last bottles left.
It has become a very popular product in our line. Glad you were able to get your hands on some - we’re making batches as fast as we can :)
Hi Rupes.. im a huge fan of your product. What if the car already has ceramic coating but swirl mark already start to build. Which uno should i used... pure or protect?
Thanks for watching and commenting. Some ceramic coatings can be polished lightly, others cannot. It is best to consult the manufacturer of the coating for their recommendation. In the event you can polish it, UNO protect would not be suitable as a solution since it deposits a different type of protection on top and it may interfere with the properties of the coating.
Great video. Can i use uno to polish my ppf. Thank you keep up the great videos.
Thanks for watching. It should be safe for most PPF's but always consult the manufacturer of the particular film you have to be sure. Ultimately, their opinion should be the one you follow - especially if there is a warranty included with it!
@@RUPES Ok thanks
Rupes ,,süper.Azerbaycan
We like to watch more products videos on your black series line up products ... try to put full length videos we will love it and more diy people will have guidelines
Thanks for your efforts I already used it and waiting to apply P808 on top of it ..👍👍👍
We appreciate your comments. The black line products are only available in very limited markets, so it isn't likely we'll have videos on them soon. For full length tutorial videos we recommend you check out the BigFoot 101 playlist on our channel. ua-cam.com/play/PLkX3qMzwBy1EOnBML1roW5F_CDx3eblWy.html
I love all of the Uno Protect content that has come out in the last few months but I haven’t seen an Uno Pure ultra fine video that is comprehensive yet. I want to see a detailed video on that product. Please.
We covered a little of it in today’s release:
ua-cam.com/video/WsdRlEliM7g/v-deo.html
You’ll also find it covered in our kick-off webinar:
ua-cam.com/video/tUoTMl2HZfc/v-deo.html
And more content about it coming soon!
@@RUPES Thank you for the heads up! I’ll peep it. I’ll also be on the lookout for more. 👍🏼
What would be a price range for a job like this?? On cars/trucks/suvs??
Hello Rupes,
Seems like an amazing product, will this be as effective if used by hand?
Thank for watching and it is a pretty amazing product. It can be used by hand, but it will not be nearly as effective at removing defects. Expect very little defect removal, but good gloss and protection, if applied by hand.
@@RUPES Many thanks, Subscribed. Greetings from UK.
Which speed you select on machine when you work with Rupes Uno protect? I am talking about DA machine.. thanks ❤️
Typically speed 3-4 in all applications. More info on speed selection in this video: ua-cam.com/video/K3s3SVid0o4/v-deo.html
I was wondering on how to apply Rupes Uno Protect properly! meaning how to apply if you want to correct, & how to apply if you want to protect? how many passes are suggested for correction? also Wool seems intimidating me as a beginner, is it safe on all clear coats? thank you!!
Check out the webinar linked in the description - it goes over the nitty gritty details of the product including how to use it and maximize performance. As far as the fear of wool - it is common, but it's tied to the fact so many people associate wool with the old school twisted wool pads commonly used on a rotary. The DA wool pads are a completely different animal (still sheep LOL) in that its far less aggressive and safe for anyone of any skill level to use. From a technical standpoint it is actually less aggressive than a microfiber pad! Give the yellow wool a try and we're confident you'll love the results!
@@RUPES Thank you guys for the reply!!! can you guys maybe show how much product to use for correction and how much to use for simply protection? thx!
El número Uno ✨✨👍
Il numero Uno (in Italian of course) :)
I will definitely give this product a try, but can you tell me what the fundamental difference is with 3D One. I suppose Uno protect has a protective sealent and 3D one does not. Correct?
You are correct. The other product is just compound+polish in one, no protection. We don’t have any comparative data in terms of relative cut between the two, so that may be different. We just haven’t tested it.
Please please could you do a how to video on your lh19 rotary,I purchased one and love it but I’m still getting holograms 🤷♂️there’s loads of videos out there but lots of differing opinions on the correct way.please help🙏
That’s a great question and topic, but probably too complex to cover in a short format video. Maybe something as part of a longer webinar on rotary technique. We’ll look into making something.
RUPES thanks for the fast reply
Hi! After the application of a UNO Protect it is possible days after to apply carnauba wax or a quick detailer?
Yes it is, but as we indicated in an earlier response, you may actually reduce the performance of UNO as a result. Natural waxes and most spray detailers will not have the same level of water beading/sheeting as UNO Protect does. Doesn't cause any issues, but it would be a reduction in performance. If you do want to use a topper we recommend sticking to a product that is the polymer sealant family to keep the performance somewhat consistent.
Might have to look into this. For those type of clients I'm offering a glaze topped with carnauba wax... From what I understand - I'll get both (not carnauba naturally but a LSP nonetheless) in less time? Correct me if I'm wrong?
You’ll get more, actually! Glazes are most often just temporary fillers. UNO will actually correct, not hide, the defects. The finish you’ll deliver won’t go backwards over time and the protection will be more durable
@@RUPES I though uno was a temporary fix too. Ok then, what level of correction are we talking about? Circa 2500-3000 grit?
Would depend on the paint hardness, but we have removed 3000 grit in some tests. It isn’t necessarily formulated for that purpose, but it has that capability.
@@RUPES thanks ;)
Hello Rupes ! Can we top up uno protect AIO with other popular hybrid ceramic spray coatings or wax of our preference ? How much time do you suggest leaving uno protect to cure before applying another topper? Thank you and sorry if its answered already (too many comments to read) !
Thanks for watching. Our latest video covers this and a bunch of other questions about UNO Protect ua-cam.com/video/btqS4eclmEE/v-deo.html
@@RUPES Alright thanks !
My question while I was using the wonderfull Uno Protect and Uno Pure,is this: "If I use the excellent P808 right after the full application procedure of the Uno Protect,will it further increase the added protection?
Thank you
Good question and you definitely can top UNO Protect with a spray sealant if you like, just be aware that if you do that before the end of the UNO Protect curing timeframe (4 hours) the introduction of liquid may interfere and diminish the longevity/behavior of the sealant in Protect. It’s best to apply toppers, if you want, the next day or at least 4 hours after application for best results
@@RUPES That's exaclty what i was thinking...Thank you very much!I Apreciate it.
How can I clean my yellow foam pad?
hi! can i use this on windshield with water marks bro? thanks and more power to rupes .. cheers!
You can, provided they are surface water marks. If it is etching the product will not have the abrasive power to remove that. Also be aware that the first time the wipers are run on the windsheild it will likely remove the sealant.
Could I use this to to correct paint before I put down a ceramic coating?
Tha is for watching. No. UNO Protect is NOT recommended for use before coating application.
Used this for the first time today. Good stuff but how do you get it out of the pads?? 😳 once those fibers are coated, forget about it. I feel like I have to throw the pad away.
It can become difficult to remove if you let it dry/cure in the pad. Follow the guidance in this video for using water to keep it wet (bucket) or loosening it up with a couple of spritzes before blowing out

How does it perform on wet sanded "single-stage" very dark color"?? thank you,PJP
That would really depend on the sanding mark and paint hardness, however, an all-in-one product typically is not the choice for correcting sanding marks.
@@RUPES THANK YOU FOR THE TIMELY REPLY- I,LL work it out!!
Dylan, please tell me is there a difference between red capped and black bottles? I use the one with the red cap and it has a reddish paste, but I saw that the black ones are white.
Unfortunately, I'm not aware of any changes to the caps. Perhaps it was replaced by a distributor after damage in shipment? If you need assistance with this contact us via email and we can get some pictures to understand the specifics. www.rupes.com/contact-us
Dylan, are you from Pittsburgh?
Thanks for watching. Dylan is based in Colorado and works at our US headquarters
Can I top this with paste wax? Will it degrade the sealant!
You can top UNO Protect if you like. We typically recommend you stick to something in the polymer family that matches up with UNO Protect so you enjoy the longer lasting benefits and higher water beading, but if you prefer paste was it won't harm anything.
Subscribed. Liked. Notifications on.
...and Mr. Dylan, do NOT dance like that... never, ever, never, ever!!!
Thanks... but we cannot make any promises. 😉
I recently purchased a 1 liter bottle and the liquid is pink instead of beige like all the demonstration vids. Did you guys change the formula?
No change to the formula, just a tweak to the appearance that doesn’t impact performance. Check out this video for more info:
Everything You Need to Know About... UNO Protect ua-cam.com/video/btqS4eclmEE/v-deo.html
Used clay bar ..before applying uno protect is good..???
Proper decontamination, including clay and/or chemical methods is recommended before any polishing process if the surface needs it.
Can I ask you something? Is it just Rupes Uno that I need? No ceramic stuff on top of it or ceramic then Rupes? Or just Rupes?
Thanks or posting your question. UNO Protect is not recommended before any ceramic coating product, as it is a different family of protection and can interfere with the coatings ability to bond with the surface. Some people do like to top UNO Protect with an additional layer of something like a spray sealant, but it is not required.
@@RUPES thanks! A friend of mine told me to wax my car once a week. Is that necessary?
That would be excessive.
can i use the blue wool pad with the uno protect, or will this combo leave haziness?
You can. It is actually a popular combination. On some paints that combo finishes beautifully, on others it will leave a haze. The only way to know is to test it on the car and evaluate the result.
@@RUPES thank you. rupes really replies 😊
Se puede aplicar a mano 🖐??
UNO Protect se puede aplicar a mano, pero no funcionará tan bien. Espere que no elimine las imperfecciones, pero hará que la superficie brille y proporcione una capa de protección. Se requiere una máquina si desea que el producto elimine los arañazos.
What do you guys think about using Uno Protect with something like the Uro-fiber 50/50 pad?
I'm considering this as an option because I can easily vary the cut but varying my working speed and nothing else.
We’d recommend you give our yellow wool a try. Capable of the same approach, but with better finishing qualities.
@@RUPES thanks for the prompt reply guys. Very much appreciated.
Must admit I have never worked with wool pads before. I've always stuck to microfibre or foam until now.
Be interesting to see what they are like. Do they generate much more in the way of heat?
The opposite actually! Our wool pads have some very distinct advantages over microfiber including they run significantly cooler and do not load as badly with residues (and residue load diminishes results). An earlier episode of RUPES Replies actually covers this specific topic: ua-cam.com/video/HgBTPAY9AiE/v-deo.html
@@RUPES legends! Thank you.
Sorry wife, its time for me to watch every episode of RUPES Replies! Lol.
🤣
Can you explain the difference with uno prime and uno pure?
Sure -
Protect, as described in the video, is an all-in-one polish and protectant. It deposits a sealant as it corrects.
Pure is an ultrafine finishing polish that leaves nothing behind. It is a product for producing show car level shine, or finishing very soft paints. Because it does not leave anything behind it is great for pre-coating polishing.
@@RUPES Thank you so much.. Keep up with the good video and info 👍.. Already tried Uno Protect and loved it😘 Next i will try the uno pure
You shouldn't wear a watch where the time is visible :P Great Video as always. Thanks alot.
*this video for an illustration of concept only
You also don't have to dance while you're waiting for it to cure ;)
Which product: Uno Protect minus sealant for ceramic?? Uno Pure has been said[in other videos comments] has less cutting possibilities.
Thanks for posting your question. If you're looking for something with the equivalent correcting power to UNO Protect, but without the sealant aspect we would recommend our D-A Fine polishing compound.
I think my biggest question is how is UNO Protect in a mobile situation? I end up in the sunlight a lot and that's why my go to all in one has been HD Speed because it is sun friendly.
We have a video coming on this topic, but it is “sun friendly” provided you make adjustments to technique to compensate
@@RUPES awesome, I really appreciate your reply! I will stop by my supply shop and pick some up to try. Sonax perfect finish isn't technically sun friendly but I make that work for me in the sun all the time, excited to try UNO Protect!
Outside in sun ok or not because l not a garage sorry m'y english
Yes, however you should make adjustments to technique. Work in smaller sections, do everything you can to manage heat, and remove the product from the surface sooner than the recommended 20 minutes. Working in direct sun is never ideal, but with adjustments you can do it. We are planning a video on this subject soon. Stay tuned!
Questo è un prodotto eccezionale. Noi lo utlizziamo tantissimo anche per le auto della Polizia.
Grazie!
What do you recommend to correct the paint almost 💯 % ??
Our new D-A system which includes a course and fine grade will give you the capability for 100% correction on a broad spectrum of defects and paint hardnesses. Keep in mind though, even UNO Protect is capable of 100% correction on moderate defects with the right pad and technique.
Hi. I’d like to share my positive opinion if you don’t mind. I’ve had used the blue coarse pad and compound after sanding w 1500,2000,3000 and the results are great.
Thank you for sharing that feedback. 👍🏻
Can you add a graphene or ceramic coating over this product?
Thanks for watching. UNO Protect is a polymer based sealant, so it is not recommended to be used before any coating type product.
Does it contain Silicon?
Yes, but a little more complex than that. This webinar recording answers that and a lot of other questions about UNO Protect: ua-cam.com/video/z2pHaiVsNno/v-deo.html
@@RUPES thanks! Highly appreciate it!
Can you use the yellow wool on a black car
The color of the car really has very little to do with the choice of products, especially because all these processes are done on the top layer, which is clear coat not base coat.
@@RUPES in your experience will the yellow wool finish alright on darker colors or swirl?
A swirl mark is the result of tool movement (rotary), not pad material. So, no. We have not ever observed a swirl mark when using our DA wool pads on dark colors with dual-action tools.
Can it micromar? Possibly. It has a lower risk of micromarring on dark colors than microfiber pads, and depending on paint hardness is perfectly capable of being a one step pad.
Still don't talk about using it in direct sunlight
There are future videos on this topic b/c that question comes up not just about UNO Protect, but all our compounds. The short answer is - ANY compound can be used in direct sunlight, but the intensity, ambient temperature, and other factors will determine what adjustments you need to make to compensate for it. For the mostpart, working in smaller sections, shortening cycle time, increasing slightly the amount of product used, and wiping off immediately are all adjustments that need to be made for a direct sun application.
