For the first time i used my Porter Cable 7424 with the following product.Pinnacle Advance Swirl Remover, Pinnacle Advance Polish, and Liquid Sourveran.Like i said iv never used any of this stuff b4 and im and VERY happy with the results.The firebird is a 1994 and has the original crappy GM paint except for the front fenders up to the front of the car.That paint is a year old.I started at 10:30am with a good wash and clay bar then i didnt finish with the Pinnacle Twins and souveran untill 5:30pm.so let me know how i did.

I agree. I took the moldings off of my car and it made a huge difference. Much cleaner look. Just means that I have to park on the farthest end of the parking lots now.

well see i used a advance auto parts orbital back in december to my GTP so the PC has way less vibration.I didnt have the cash to order a wool leveling pad and bonets so i put a micro fiber bonnet that i had left over back on my 10inch orbital from advance and went over the car after the souveran hazed.if i had fillings the advance orbital could easily vibrate them out.lol
