Tempting... Why is a porter cable 3 times the amount though?

 

[Bluebeard]

Because the ebay one in the wrong hands (i.e, a dumb fcuk) will strip the paint off a car.

A porter cable polisher is an idiot proof polisher.

I think anyone with patience and common sense would probably be fine. Just take it slow..

Even the PC will do damage, it is just certain people that sell them say otherwise.

Yeah, but be fair rich, you'd have to be pretty bloody aggressive to get a PC to do any serious long term damage...

True - it is no rotary, I went through some paint easily with a mild polish and light cut pad on a 182 wheel though. Find a thin patch and strike through is fairly easy!

The wheels are dire though to be fair... They make the paintwork look like German stuff...
