i ordered the porter cable 7424 from the states about a month ago and have never looked back. I used meguiars #83 + #80 and also some menzerna polishes to great affect, especially on soft vauxhall paint. I would also recommend autoglym super resin polish as a good filler to hide ne swirl marks/fine scratches

I used the following to get pink corsa back to red. Did it all by hand so took fekn ages but worked well. Hate t-cut though. There is the autoglym paint renovator but dunno how effective it is.

t-cut,
autoglym super resin polish,
autoglym extra gloss protection
