You should be good to go. Don't be scared of the orbital. Adam's stuff comes with an instructional DVD and he tells you how many oscillations per minute to set your buffer for each step.

It can get pricey. I've probably spent a little over a grand on Adam's stuff. That also includes the porter cable orbital polisher I bought from them.

Thanks Nick ,this looks like great stuff, I have been using a product called Dress-all I spray it on and wipe it with a cloth gives me a nice clean looking finish similar to tire dressing etc.

You're welcome. That sounds like it does the job. What I would highly recommend is VRT. I not only use it on my tires, but I also use it for the black trim around the windows and rear diffuser.
