    It`s a great machine, it does have some history of faults but I think the most recent batch cleared up some issues when I called Griot`s to ask about that. The power is great with that machine.

    PC7424XP
    Harbor Freight Rotary (Drillmaster)

    I might look into the Flex Dual action as a happy medium between the 2 and demote the PC to finishing/glazing/LSPs.

    My "other" polisher is an old Craftsman 2 speed polisher /sander. I bought it in 1968 and even though it`s semi retired it still sees some occasional action..

    Re: Which polishers are in your arsenal?

    I have a PC and a Flex DA. Ive only used the Flex a couple times so far but I love it. The supplier that sold me the PC had me try out the Flex on a car he was detailing and I had to have one

    You need to get a Porter Cable 7424XP with the right pads and chemicals and your set! let me know and I`ll try to get you a list made up for your 1st set.

    FLEX 3401
    Cyclo dual head
    Makita (early 90`s) rotary. Speed on 1 I think is 1500rpm. I don`t use that very often.
