Ok, but why? Do you have a PC already? They are basically the same machine.

I'm going to polish&wax half of my car with my polisher, and the other half with NGO's porter cable to see if there is a noticable difference.

What if any are the spec differences? I've used the PC7424 for many years.

just in power, pc 7424 has 3.7amps, the one i got has 4.2 amps. a 20% increase in power, and also more standard features. such as standard velcro backing plate, something that is an option for the pc.
