Ha ha...yeah I just pulled it out of box...

So anxious....

 

Plug it in and make sure it works........

 

Good point.

Turns on.

I'll ask Denzil to take a look at it when he cruises over on Saturday.

 

Thanks for the support.

I'll be calling you later or ordering online some of the stuff I am going to need.

Got to figure that out first.

 

Started working with the PC.

I totally have a new appreciation for the labor involved in quality detail wok.

 

Make sure you put your hours in while you have the time Noah!

 

Fa sho!

 

gotta get me one.. I need to do the WTB and check out ebay.

That was a black and decker Noah?

 

Porter Cable.

The model info. is in the first post.

 

hahaha got it Thanks

 

No problem man! lol

 

I guy told me to shoot him a offer on a pc 7424 so im doing my research on ebay seeing how much they go for

 

Well new...they go for around ~ $170.

 

yea i saw on ebay he said something about the valcro backing he said 100 plus shipping I think they may be a good deal...

 

What kind of backing plate.....And do they offer a warranty?

 

Well...I paid $100 + Shipping and that included some new and used pads.

I was happy with what I got.

 

Patrick may be able to hook you up with what you need Kev.

 

this is what the PM said

a velcro backing plate and a extra white velcro pad

 

I think you should ask for a lower price. Also, if he could provide pictures that we could see, that would be helpful.

 

yea thats exactly what i was about to say see if I can get some pics of it so you guys can see it.. I will ask him right now

 

here you guys go this is what it comes with thats all

 

How much does the seller want for it?

Make an offer.

 

100 plus ship

 

That's how much I paid...

 

yea you got more though huh?

 

Older model...

 

I don't think I'd pay $100 + shipping for it. Even if it is more from Patrick, I'd still go with Patrick instead.

However, if he'll do $80 shipped, I think you have a deal. Otherwise, no go.

 

Is it used? That backing plate is not well suited for foam pads, its not very rigid. The problem with used PC's is you dont know how many hrs are on them. Typically after about 300 run hours, the brushes weaken, and you start to lose the rotation. Brushes are about $30.00 (?), then your in brand new shape. Ive gone through two PC's this way.....

 

yea its used how much do you sell them for patrick?

 

^ Sell what...the Porter Cable or just the backing plate?

 

oops the porter cable

 

We'll check it out for yourself...

OP, sorry to but you posted in my vacuum thead! Haha

This is for sale in the BM: https://acurazine.com/forums/car-parts-sale-361/almost-new-porter-cable-7424-polisher-722830/
PC 7424 for $115 shipped. Good PC? Good deal?

 

Boo

OK after doing some of my own research, I think the PC7424 would be a good purchase for me.

Am I better off paying $110-120+ from here for just the basic packages or spend $200+ on this package?

 

I would much rather purchase a better kit from Patrick. What he has to offer is better than going out and buying everything individually on your own. Don't worry, Patrick will set you up right. If not, you can always ask me what I think you should get.

 

^ Just spoke to Patrick and I was just about to buy this

http://www.prestostore.com/cgi-bin/s...5683&pd=299296

Then I saw a similar package for $170 (free shipping) that includes 2 white pads, 2 gray pads, 2 orange pads, 1 5" urethane backing plate, a wrench and a counterweight!

Sorry Patrick

 

Yeah...wonder who got it.

I know that guy contacted Kevin through his WTB thread.
