  • Porter Cable 7424 vs. Meguiar's DA

    Ok, I have done a lot of looking in the search thread and on both companies web site's. What I am trying to find out is what is the major difference - if any - between the Porter Cable 7424 and the Megs DA made by Porter Cable. I am asking because there is a SIGNIFICANT price difference and if they are essentially the same, I don't want to pay extra just because it is a Meguiar's product. Thanks for the help.

    I believe the difference is that Meguiar's comes with a lifetime warranty whereas the same machine from anywhere else has no warranty. Definitely worth the extra money when it's a tool that is used every day.

      Is that it? Just the warranty? They are both made by PC so they should be equally well made...correct?

        You will get the correct backing plate with the Meguiars PC and I think one pad... both are made by porter-cable and both are high quality machines.

        If you do go with the 7424 you will need to get the DA Velcro Buffing System sells for $32.95.

          Actually, there's little difference between the list prices of the 7424 and the G-100.

          Most people compare the street price of the 7424 with the list price of the G-100.

          Many retailers discount the 7424 and some of them discount very deeply. But if you hunt around you'll find good deals on the G-100 too.
