Up for grabs is a brand new in the box, never used, porter cable 7424. Figure I'd alert the true detailers before I put this baby up on ebay. This PC comes complete w/ polishing pad, washer, and wrench. Everything is unused and untouched. Shoot me an offer.

You can reach me at RGosline18@hotmail.com or by AIM RGoose18. Thx

I've never used it and it's just sitting. I figure it can do someone else a LOT more good than it's doing me. Also, I found out that my vehicle has a Single Stage paint and I feel more comfortable doing the detailing by hand.

Don't worry about the single stage paint, as the PC will make the work so much easier and the results so much nicer. Get a good combination of pads and some quality polishes and waxes and be prepared to turn some heads with the quality of detail you can produce with your PC. It truly is a marvelous tool and is virtually fool proof. :)
 
:confused: Okay, I'm in the doofus mode. :stupid What is single stage paint? What other kinds of paint are there on today's automobiles?

Be gentle,

Rather than type out an explantion read this quote I cut n' pasted (I'm lazy...):

“There are basically two main types of paint: Single stage and Two-stage. Single stage paints have the glossy clear actually mixed into the paint and can be applied with "color and gloss", if you will, in one stage. Single stage paints include "Acrylic Enamel (most common), Acrylic Lacquer, and Synthetic Enamel". These types of paint were most commonly used in automotive purposes up until the early '80's until the release of two stage paints. Two stage paints are commonly referred to as "base-coat / clearcoat". Naturally, your first-stage is to spray a flat color coat, then spray your gloss on as the second stage.”

Quite all right. Cool! I knew that about both types of paint; I'd just never heard them referred to as SS vs 2S. Thanks for the explanation!
