Meguires porter cable

[jfoster1]

Is the porter cable g-100 that meguires sells the same machine as the porter cable 7424?

Thanks in advance

Yes.

Ya, G100 comes with lifetime warranty and the PC only 1 year warranty, but of course the G100 costs significantly more.

I think the only people that make a PORTER CABLE IS themselves some companies put a nameplate on the machine and work out a deal with PORTER. If there is a problem you sent it back to the company you bought it from and they send it to porterto be fixed.Not to mention they tack on another 80-150 bucks

Actually Meguiars is having a promotion where you can buy the G100 for $149.

Bob is correct. The rebranded Meguiar's G-100 is exactly the same as the PC 7424. At the current special (you have to register at: http://www.meguiarsonline.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=2544 ) price of $149, they include the proper backing plate, and a foam pad. Not to mention the lifetime guarantee.



I currently have an 18 month old PC (among others) which was dropped on the concrete floor and sent out for ($65) repair. "Somebody" dropped it again two weeks later, and now it is dead! Oh, If I had a warranty!



I'll be bringing a G-100 home from the upcoming NXT Technical Institute's Seminar on Wet Sanding, etc



If it is NOT the same, I'll be sure to let you know!!

Very tempting at that price to get an extra one with a lifetime warranty....
