craftsman buffer
I bought the 7" craftsman buffer yesterday and some meguiars gold class liquid wax... fucking amazing compared to doing it by hand... so much more even/ easier. the one i got was on sale 30 from 50, and i got the 4$ 2 year replacement for it. Excellent purchase, i would reccomend it for anyone who likes there car shiney and their arm in tact.

Funny I was just thinking about buying a buffer yesterday instead of taking it to a detailer. I know nothing about buying/using one and was going to cruise the wash/wax section here.

Nice shine BTW.

The detailing places use a Porter Cable buffer I believe that's over $200.

You can get one for like 100-150. I've seen them brand new on ebay. A PC polisher is on my list of things to buy.

Just bought the only PC 7424 brand new on Ebay - 124 including shipping/ins. Couldn't find it locally and online it ran 129-150 + shipping.

It's supposed to be one of the best. Guess I'll be busy...
