    Worth Upgrading to PC 7424XP?

    the 4.75 backing plate should work perfect with the 5 to 5.5" pads. If you feel you need more flex for some reason you can always get a different back plate at a later time but I doubt you will need it.

    Worth Upgrading to PC 7424XP?

    after re-reading I am surprised that no one has commented on this. 6.5" pads are too big for the 7424xp also. 6.5" pads are great for beginners. I recently ordered 5.5" and 4" pads and yes it makes a huge difference. Here is an idea, If you can afford the Flex get it, keep the PC, invest in...

    Onrww I believe ....I believe!!!!! Do you??

    Wow, because I am utterly bored, I will ad my opinion. This is what happens when people believe in a method of doing which can be taken to an extreme. And in many cases rightfully so, but does this isolate a way of needing to be written in stone for everyone to follow exactly? No of course not...

    its ok to take a break, its also hard to fix it if it aint broke. when those swirls return after a long break that should get you back in the game. It doesn't hurt to get a friend involved, I can't stand working on any ones car if they are not there to keep me company. Or teach someone the...
