eshine.ca is out of stock, Crappy Tire's price is WAY high and all others seem to be in the States. I can get it shipped for $US240 including:

* Porter Cable 7424
* 6" Backing Plate
* 6" Counter Weight
* 1x Yellow Cutting Pad
* 2x Orange Light Cutting Pads
* 2x White Polishing Pads
* 2x Black Finishing Pads
* 2x Blue Fine Finishing Pads
* 3x Snappy Clean Pad Cleaners

Anybody seen it for a better price? Amazon.com has just the polisher for $US130, but then you have to add all the above and it probably comes out the same. I've been checking the Marketplace, too.

 

best price I've found. Just ordered mine today from these guys.

^^ That's actually the place I quoted above. We're on the same page so far! Thanks lekker.

 

You might want to check some of the local stores. I was suprised to find out that a local vendor was selling it cheaper than eshine with extras to the boot as well.

 

http://www.carcaresmart.com/ but they are out too.

 

^^^+1, thats where Colin and I picked ours up a cople of years ago. They were good to deal with.

 

Chris @ eShine says he'll have more in next week. Yay!

 

Wayne, PM sent.

 

Good stuff Wayne, you will like it.
E shine is good to deal with and they are in Canada. Best to give them support

 

Just bought the Flex VG304 buffer from Detailed Image. I also have the PC7424 and have been using it religiously for 3 years.

The flex simply destroys the PC7424. I took out swirls that I thought would never come out. My paint looked better after I polished it with SIP & 1066FF and the Flex and had nothing else on it than it did after I polished, glazed, sealed and waxed the paint. The machine has so much torque, it is almost hard to control.

I'm still going to use the PC to do smaller jobs but for polishing, the flex is absolutely awesome.

Just my 0.02 cents.

 

Thx for the feedback, el. I haven't bought yet so ya never know.

 

Ordered! 7424 along with 5 pads and 32oz of Menz 106 (thanks for the recommendation, Shane!)

Hope it's still warm enough by the time it gets here for me to use it!

 

You can always wait for the next Chinook......

Glad you found one Wayne

 

Good stuff Wayne. You won't have any regrets shelling out the money for the PC, pads, and polish as it's worth every penny. The 0106FF is a fantastic polish and it finishes down extremely well. You won't be disappointed and your EM Sedan is gonna look awesome. Let me know if I can help any further.

 

Good decision Wayne. Welcome to the club.

Your car is gonna love you.

I haven't done a proper detail on mine since June of '07. If you post up pics of yours afterward maybe that will inspire me.
