The Porter Cable 7424 is a dual action random orbital, not a high speed rotary. The body lines on the Crossfire are nothing to be concerned about when using this tool as it does not have the power of a rotary. Because of that it also can't correct the most severe defects the way a rotary can, but if you maintain your vehicle on a regular basis it should never get that bad to begin with.

Frank, I think they have the best deal.

It's the Porter Cable 7424.
