Hi, I have a 2008 black Corvette. I have applied 5 layers of Zaino Z2 & Z5 to it. I am happy with the shine and gloss but I can still see some light scratches and light swirl marks from the poor dealer prep. I would like to try a porter cable 7424. any thoughts or advice on what products to use?

I think it is. I just told myself that patients is key since i have the PC right now. Just got the tax return so the flex is lookin mighty fine right about now( it tends to do the job alot quicker with more correction power).

It is, get yourself the kit Killr advised, just make sure it is the 5.5 inch pads and has orange, white and blue pads. You can start off with 106fa on a white pad, but you are probably going to need the orange pad and sip to start with. After the sip/orange pad, follow with 106fa/white pad, then 106fa on a blue pad to finish. Also leave the porter cable on speed 6.
