So I ordered the "Porter Cable 7424 Starter Kit" from detailed image (LINK (http://www.detailedimage.com/wax.php?id=1042&url=detailedimage.com/DI-Packages-M29/Porter-Cable-7424-Starter-Kit-P138/) in case you want it) and it arrived yesterday morning. I immediately went to my friends house since he wanted to see it in action as well. I must say that after detailing by hand this is a lot more better and its fun in a way. Anyway, as it was about 3 and me and my friend never touched a PC before, it took awhile to get used to and actually started to correct (2 hours:help: ). Therefore, I only have 1/2 trunk shots for now :hairpull
Wash with NXT Carwash
Claybar with a Mother`s claybar w/NXT wash as lubricant
Yellow cutting pad w/PC and Menz IP (tons of passes seeing the condition of my paint)
White polishing pad w/PC and Menz FP II (2 passes)
Wax with NXT Paste Wax
Now for the pics, but like I said, I only finished half the trunk yesterday. I did the rest this morning in about an hour though :waxing:

Sorry for the inadequate lighting, it was a spur of the moment thing and it was getting dark when we finished haha
Tips, criticisms, or both are appreciated. I`m here to maximize the correction I can do since the rest of my car is like, or worse, than the trunk :wall . I`m satisfied with the amount of correction I did though. I almost thought I had to use a rotary or upgrade to the Flex to get rid of them. Thanks for looking!
