definitely get a porter cable 7424xp if you're starting off. contact phil at detailersdomain and he'll help with any products you need to start off with, he's a sponsor here and I go to him for most of my detailing needs. he also has a forum with how-to videos which are a must watch. he has a promotion of 20% off that ends this week so i'd do it fast and take advantage of it.

YOU DONT WANT A ROTARY BUFFER...
you want a random orbital buffer, it's the difference between a beautifully polished car and burnt paint.

If its a DW849, hands down the best buffer out there. Allot quieter than a 7424XP, the rotary fears are overrated. A DA maybe easier to start with, but it has lmitations, too. Owning the PC and the Dewalt, if I had to have one, I'd stick with the rotary. Hand finishing isn't as hard as heavy cutting with a PC. If there was a fixed rotation DA with a decent drive system that was reliable it would more ideal than either above.
