    The PC 7424 is the same as G100 from Meg. The only exception is a lifetime warranty for G100. The 7424 only has one year.
    The 7424 comes with a polishing pad glued to a backing plate in which is pretty much useless unless you use the Ultimate Bonnet .

    I also heard that it does not last. If you order a G100 from Meguiars, it will include their Velcro backing plate and a polishing pad, but not the pad from Porter & Cable
    So if you order the PC7424, you will need to get the 5� Velcro backing plate and some polishing pads.


    Now, here are some companies that can ship their products to Australia.
    This website is for sale! premiumautocare.com is your first and best source for all of the information you’re looking for. From general topics to more of what you would expect to find here, premiumautocare.com has it all. We hope you find what you are searching for!

    Autogeek is your number one car care source for auto detailing supplies, the best car wax, car care products, car polishes, auto accessories, polishers, and car detailing tools store.

    If you also are looking to get some professional products, I would suggest Premium Autocare because they offer the most.
    Don’t jump ahead and start ordering. Because you have to evaluate how much they will charge to ship your order and see if there are any other taxes and duties that you have to pay in AU. Probably is better to email them to find out. If is way too much, perhaps will be cheaper if you look to a local supplier or even Meguiars Australia.

    Cheers!

      Hi there.
      I have done the same. I ordered from Autogeek.com this week. The shipping quote is quite expensive. But I definitely have to get one. I got a flexible backing plate and a few finishing pads. Like in Australia, I need a converter as well.
      Good luck.

        I've used Sparkle Auto on amazon.com to ship stuff to Australia.

        I spent AUD140 to get a bunch of Meguiar's, that would have cost me AUD190 in the stores. It also meant I got to buy stuff you can't get in Australia yet.

        I'll be placing my next order in a week or so.

          Got some NXT and other stuff we cant yet get here ... the next was $12 online and here in the shops we pay $40ish - so it paid to stock up big

          i look forward to many many details with this thing

                    sorry guys completely forgot about the link

                    i got mine from http://www.autopia.org/
                    if meguiars shipped to australia i would definately get it from them because of the life time warranty. having said that i was majorly impressed with the service form these guys to get this item in 6 days.
