Absolutely stunning mate!!....fabulous condition esc cos with superb paintwork, that really is top work
im going to do mine again over the winter with the 4 stage poorboys stuff but want one of these porter cable devices, are they worth it or will i get away with a conventional paint shop mop???

If you are a beginner to machine polishing, then i'd defo recommend a Porter Cable (or other random orbital polisher) over a rotary type.
Basically because they are safer and it's almost impossible to do any damage with a random orbital
it's definitely worth it, 100%
