Default Recommendations for a Waxer/Polisher?

Can anyone recommend a decent brand & model washer/polisher? My 10 year old Craftsman finally gave out and needs a replacement.

Don’t need a full-blown buffer, just a waxer/polisher.

Thanks!

The lifetime warranty applies to electrical tools too? I thought that was just hand tools and such?

The lifetime warranty does not include Craftsman power tools and precision hand tools. Craftsman portable power tools, bench power tools, air compressors, powered lawn & garden products and other powered items carry various warranties ...

To answer your question though, the PC 7424 seems to be the best you can get.

Craftsman is a good choice...

personally I use a Makita 9227C buffer. No issues and alot of use over 2 years.

Also, if your gonna detail. 3M has great products.
