    You can use the link S2dude provides. Some of the guys on there are professional detailers and some of the work they do is truely awesome .

    You want the Porter Cable 7424 dual action random orbital machine. Best to get a kit that includes a pad set, as the pad that comes with the machine isn't that good. (see link below)

    I bought mine off a guy in the UK through ebay. He imports a few at a time, then sells here to save others having to import themselves.
    Nice honest guy, and I got mine in two days from date of purchase. Link for others to the ebay guy here.
    As I just said in that PM Steve, NOTHING you can do by hand matches what that machine can do. You also don't run the risk of burning your paint like a rotary will if used wrongly.

                Autoglym bumper care. One of the best products I have come across. You will need to treat it with a lot and really "feed" the plastic if you are back to grey. They will then need treatment every few weeks to stay black. Its the only way to do it and keep a nice natural finish IMO.

                Cheers,

                Steve.
