The big-panel machine. A 21 mm orbit on a 6-inch plate covers hoods, roofs and truck doors faster than anything else without a rotary, and the Mark III's stronger motor keeps the pad rotating under pressure where earlier BigFoots stalled. It is too large for bumpers and pillars, which is why it is almost always the second RUPES a detailer buys, paired with a 15 mm or the LHR75E Mini for the tight areas.
