A lot of people here swear by Zaino, but the time and effort is just too much for me.

Ya man....the Porter Cable is like having an army of helpers.....
so far Balzz, 35Bills and I have one, (that I know about), and GEE35X (Wayne) has one on order. A great addition to the detailing cabinet.
Our local Home Depot doesn't sell them any more, tho CTC does but they're more $ than Carcaresmart. Trouble is Wayne found out that Carcaresmart is backordered on that item.

Hey Burnt...
Like the others have said, I own the 7424 P/C. I purchased it from Crappy Tire last year. I'm not to sure about the counter weight being any different than the other P/C mentioned.
I'm going to order some pads from www.carcaresmart.com .
Alas I haven't used the machine this year. I've got to get some minor body work done( kind of backed into a fence during one of the earlier snowstorms this year).
Balzz...
Where did you get your Meguires supplies?
Cheers!!!

Balzz,
Did you get your pads at CTC or some other place? The CTC near me( Leslie and Sheppard) doesn't carry any decent top end products. They have NXT but I would like to stay away from the synthetics for now( just my thoughts) until they have been around for awhile.

Nice finish Balzz!! I have a black sedan that I am looking to do the same thing with. I purchased a bunch of Zaino products last month and am just waiting for a nice weekend to dedicate my polishing to. It snowed last night and is supposed to be 10C and rainy all weekend so it doesn't look like it will be this weekend!!
