I just ordered a Porter Cable 7424XP for myself. My brother used to detail for BMW wayyyy back and he expressed interest in going halfers on it with me. So, we ordered one.

Guess your off the hook swiv!

 

Package 1 has arrived!!!

 

Nice. Be careful with that power gloss, it's aggressive stuff!

 

I have no idea yet! But I'm ready to find out!

 

He's got some serious swirls to get rid of, but yeah, read up in the detailing section or ask the pros (like Picus) how to use the stuff safely. Adam, thanks again for dropping off the ONR and WW.

 

No kidding Kevin. I've only had to pull that out a couple of times so far. It sure dusts like a bugger too!

 

the 7424xp should be home in a couple hours... Woot!

 

The new 7424XP with (free backing plate)

 

Congrats and have lots of fun with your new toy! You heard it here first......it's an addictive tool to use!! You might want to warn your GF/Wife that she might not see you on the weekends anymore.

 

Hah.

For serious swirls where you need PG just be ready to do quite a few steps cleaning up the haze it leaves behind. If you do say, PG/orange you may need to do IP/orange then IP/white then FPII/black or something.

 

Well, my plan was PG orange, MP orange, IP white, then EX black... does that sound ok?

 

That sounds pretty aggressive........got pics of your paint?

 

I haven't taken my before pictures yet. But I'm going to do that first. I'll snap a few here and see if I can capture the "love" of the previous owner.

 

These pics should show you what I have to work with.

 

I'm started my journey. This stuff does make a big mess.... but it's worth it I'm sure. I've been trying to take pictures but it's really hard to get the stuff in focus. I'll keep trying my best and update with a new thread when I"m done!
