Whats the best Porter Cable kit out there?
Well like the title say i am finally in the market for a porter cable kit. i have been looking at them for quiet a wile and researching them. i am looking to buy a nice starter set that will come with everything i need to detail my black 98 Camaro i want to leave it looking like glass! overall i think my paint is ok except for a few deep scratches here and there but i just want to eliminate all the light scratches and spiderweb and i want a nice smooth as wet glass look.
i guess my price range is around 200-250 give or take that is including the porter cable and with everything i need to get the job done.
i just want the best bang for my buck.
i found this kit for 280 which is a lil more than i expect but am willing to if its a good deal. i like the large quantity of polish it comes with 32OZ in each bottle.
Porter Cable 7424 Variable Speed Polisher
Porter Cable 7424 Wrench
Porter Cable 7424 Counter Weight
5” Backing Plate
32 oz. Menzerna Final Polish
32 oz. Menzerna Intensive Polish
32 oz. Menzerna Finishing Glaze
2 Cobra Forest Green Edgeless Microfiber Polishing Cloths
4 Cobra 6 Inch Microfiber Bonnets
1 CCS 6.5 Inch White Polishing Pad
1 CCS 6.5 Inch Gray Finishing Pad
1 CCS 6.5 Inch Blue Finessing Pad
2 FREE CCS 5 1/4 inch Orange Pads
Would this kit be all i need to complete the job?
also anything that i can just buy at a autoparts store is better for me since i work in one and get discounts.
thanks just post up any other kit.
or a list of things to purchase to make a great kit

If you guys think 32oz is more than enough chemical...
also think maybe i should buy in small quantity and see what works best..
i just want to make sure i have all the hardware.
i buy less quantity of polishes just to try different ones out.

Every customer prospect we deal with will have different needs depending on their desired results. We can start with the PC kit or FLEX buffer and tailor it for every customer. Many of accessories that may be needed after the inital order such as pads, towels, brushes come with FREE shipping too.
A 32 ounce bottle of SIP will allow you do buff every friends car you can think of. Once you experience the correction ability of the Menzerna, others will want you to do theirs too.

Definitely recommend Tropi-care. Also dont forget a good wash soap and mash mit, drying towel, clay bar kit. I also just got the tropi-care tire / rubber dressing after having used about all of the auto parts off the shelf stuff and I really like tropi-care's stuff better. It looks like you have black wheels from your little pic so this doesnt really apply to you, but anyone else reading this, I highly recommend the Magic Mix metal polish that Tropi-care sells, kicks the crap out of anything Mother's, Meguire's, etc that you could get in an auto parts store.
