The porter cable unit doesnt have this feature. The Griots unit was designed specifically for polishing and waxing vehicles. I have had mine for about a year now and I am very happy with it. It was also cheaper then the porter cable model. Griot’s model has an integral fan that cools the buffing pad and prevents heat from building up. The porter cable unit doesnt have this feature.

I like my Porter cable unit, works well and makes my old Porsche 914 look like a new car. Not sure Griot’s older model was a porter cable, not sure where the new one has come from.

I picked one of those up last spring (a 7336, paid $140 with case) .. and I've used it only once to polish my windshield.. Next spring I'm committed to doing the full detail on my old bimmer and my wife's truck. But this seems to be pretty much the same thing.. and they both even have the speed control. Granted... those aren't cheap either. How is this any different from the Porter Cable 7424 or 7336 random orbital polisher?
