I am no body pro!!! But I recently bought a Porter Cable random orbit polisher. I love it! I put the wax on by hand and take it off with the polisher. I then change pads and buff it out. I did 4 cars in 2 days and have never achieved such results by hand. Much faster, less effort, better shine, and is slicker. I'm sure many other guys will chime in here; but, I too did not want to end up polishing the ridges down to bare metal. The "random orbit" is the way to go for a non-pro. It won't burn through the paint. Understand, though, that it is not powerful enough to rub out old oxidized paint. Here is the link to it at amazon.com. I also ordered the velcro pad and bonnets.
