Gen6 Camry Detailed using new Porter Cable XP Polisher

It took four hours to wash and detail my camry today using meguires swirl x using my new porter cable 7424xp DA polisher. I cannot be more happy with the results. I used Liquid Glass a my final polish and here are the results. Any comments opinions welcome. I used fine
lake country finishing pads because my paint is in good shape to start, on to the pics.



The Porter Cable is a very easy buffer to use, I watched the videos on youtube that autogeek put up and just followed the steps.

Looks like that did a great job. I'm hoping to invest in a nice buffer like that eventually, I've only used the cheap Home Depot special...

Love my Porter Cable buffer. <3

It looks gorgeous... I'll be bringing my car over next! (Just kidding)!
And how lucky, you got the green plates!

^^^Green plate = no front plate, the good ole days, lol.


Looks good man, I suggest trying some undercarriage spray for inside your wheel wells, stuff works awesome!

Thanks Lauren,
This is my 1st time using the Porter Cable, although I have had other buffer's
in the past. I am very happy with the outcome. BTW Your Barcelona Red Camry looks very nice too.

Actually I spray under the fenders/wheel wells with Armorall tire foam, it works and looks great.

Yes I have had this plate since I have had a license, but I won't tell you how long that I have had it . But I like it because I don't have to hang one in the front.

knj27,
My 1st buffer was a 7" Black and Decker orbital thats is as old as the hills
and still runs great, but I gave it away. You should definatly upgrade to the PC 7424. Thanks everyone for your complements

Glenn

Can't really tell the difference since the car is still so new

But very shiny nonetheless!
