I just bought my 7424 and am wondering what supplies I should buy.
Here is a hosted site where I`m posting all the damage on the TSX. This doesn`t include minor swirls here and there. I tried my best to keep the car clean for the last 3 years. The past 6 months I haven`t done anything at all because I have no garage to really work out of, no time, and Chicago weather takes a toll on wanting to do any detailing... period.

I`ve kept paint swirls to a near minimum.
I wanted to know what set of pads, polish, sealant everyone would recommend for someone that`s not really on a budget but wouldn`t want to throw down cash for Zaino. I was looking at getting some Sonus products, but am open to recommendations. I plan to fill in the scratches I need with paint, sand with ~2000 grit paper and polish down from abrasive to finish. What I had in mind was the Sonus DAS pad setup, with SFX-1 through SFX-3 and sealing it with Klasse AIO. I would of course wash and clay the car prior with what I currently have.
Again I`ve never used a porter cable before so I`ll be doing this very slowly and carefully. I`ll have limited access to a garage so I wanted to also know if detailing the car is okay in outdoor weather (of course not in 70 degree direct sunlight).
The car has an awesome finish. Carbon Grey Pearl looks gorgeous when cleaned properly and I want to get it done right.
Any suggestions are much appreciated.
