Lowes and Home Depots have tool rental programs. They may have one.

The problem wit just renting the PC7424 is that for detailing you`ll need backing plate and usually a few different pads ... I doubt Home Depot will rent those.

How much you think it will cost to rent one at home depot?

you may want to post where you`re located...

Or just call a Home Depot thats close to you. But the backing plate is going to be an issue depending on what size pads you have.
What is it you`re trying to accomplish?

Okay my plan is to rent a PC 7424 if they have one at a place like Lowe`s or Home Depot in order to start the process of removing some really noticeable swirl marks on my truck. I want to get everything I need basically at the same time. Anyone know exactly what products would be best to use (and if they can be found at a store or online) with the PC 7424 in order to remove those annoying swirl marks. Products, pads, backing plates etc.

see i know from experience that once you use one you will always want to use one and think its the greatest thing in the world, so my opinion would be to order one of the starter kits from CMA while they have the 10% off and free shipping deal going on. You will never regret your purchase and you cant go wrong on one of the starter packages.

Pretty tall order for a rental. Maybe even foolish.
Get the whole package along with the 7424 or go to a pro detailer.
Car Buffers, Car Polishers, Rotary Polishers, polishing foam pads, buffing pads, wool pad, Porter Cable 7424, Makita, DeWalt, Cyclo buffer, bonnet, (http://www.autogeek.net/bupo.html) would be a good place to start.

Okay so I`ll buy a PC 7424 in order to start the process of removing some really noticeable swirl marks on my truck. I want to get everything I need basically at the same time. I will ask this again.... Does anyone know exactly what products would be best to use (and if they can be found at a store or online) with the PC 7424 in order to remove those annoying swirl marks. Products, pads, backing plates etc.

Don`t be so pejorative, man. There`s exactly hundreds of different combinations of pads, products and backing plates which would work for your situation. Have you shared what color your truck is? As mentioned, there are a number of packages available that could be a good deal, a lot of the choice of pad, product, etc. comes down to personal preference. You might also consider a UDM package. I`ll leave the recommendations to others.
