83385, Porter Cable 7424 random orbital buffer??
Posted by eclipse_99rs, Apr-02-05 10:41 AM
Is it the same product as the 7336? I'm going to purchase this bad boy when i get home so i can polish my car. My car is currently sitting in the middle of a field in miami under a car cover, I have a bad feeling about about the condition of my brand new paint thats been under the cover for 3months.

Why is it sitting in a field? Are you using it as a decoy?

LOL!

Good lord as long as the car cover is new and not dirty inside it should be fine but shit, to cover that brand new paint and scratch it would not be nice.

I'm deployed over seas. And the cover didnt go on until about 2months after the new paint.

Thats a great buffer dude. Check out my picturees that I took in Atlantic City, they are posted here somewhere. My friend has that buffer and that thing performs miracles on paint. I suggest going to autopia.com and reading up on detail techniques too. Very useful information

Also where are you stationed and what branch of service are you in? I am Navy DEP rite now. I'll be gone in October, I'm going to miss my car.

Off topic, but it's spelled "right". I've seen you spell it that way in all of your posts and now it's just annoying.

I'm 99% sure the 7424 is the same, aside from it has either a heavier or lighter counterweight from the other one you mentioned. The 7424 is more widely used, so I would say go w/ that one.
