I use a power buffer with the appropriate foam pads or wool pad.

I use the random orbit Porter-Cable 7424 for both polishing and waxing.
I often finish it up the job with a cotton towel.



aaaauuuuggggg.... No swirls? Only way to wax or polish anything is by
hand, IMOH.

Random orbit............no swirls.


Betcha otherwise. Borrow somebody elses bright, shiney, BLACK car and wax
on/wax off with a random orbit polisher. Then, in twilight, stand back and
admire the swirls.

I do not own a black car or a black boat so I would not know. I also use a
polish (3M Finesse It II) prior to the wax application.

All I know is that I never had a problem with mine and professional
detailing and body shops use electric polishers, including random orbit,
everyday.

Perhaps the black car you saw needed a good polish and rewax job. ;-)
