I'm looking for a PC orbital buffer/polisher. Preferably not too expensive, but still in usable condition.... if anyone has one laying around, please let me know!

Finding one of these 'used' is hard to come by Flo.. Go spend $130 for a brand new one, or spoof it up to about a $190 full detail kit, with ALL the appropriate pads you'll need to properly detail your S... I'd recommend anything by Lake Country IMO...

Trust me, when it comes to detailing a car, there should be absolutely NO skimping on the prep, as well as the products you use...

I'd assume you know this already, but honestly, its how you prep your car prior to the actual waxing stages, and the follow-thru, that will get you the results you're looking for ;)

I've seen people use porter cables, without knowing a THING about waxing a car, and completely make their car look like a pile of a$$... then again, I've seen people who know what they're doing, using their bare hands, and some 'over the counter' product... utilized proper body prep, and good techniques, and the paint turned out showroom pristine...

Good luck mang!!! Let me know how your search turns out!!!!!! I just ordered my 7424 from this site, and ordered a bunch of product from here.... http://www.autogeek.net/poca746varap.html

first of all, mr. weaver:
I do not "skimp on the prep" or half ass anything when it comes to detailing. you know that.
second:
I'm not skimping anything if I'm trying to buy the same damn buffer, but "used".
third:
LETS HOPE YOU DON'T MAKE YOUR CAR LOOK LIKE A PILE OF A$$ :goodjob:
