Reminds me when I drove a 1960 vw bug around for about a month with a really, really loud knocking sound, hoping it would last until I had time and $$ to investigate the sound.

Well needless to say, I was horrified
when the crank fell into two pieces when I split the case open. Then two years later, same car, that sound returned after 25k miles on the rebuild. This time I knew what it was
and drove the car around for 2 months with a broken crank. ![Wish](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/wish.gif)

But, it doesn't replace a high-speed rotary buffer and a wool pad that you need for some serious compounding or following a paint job. That also requires skill and experience.
For getting rid of swirl marks and bringing out a shine a mile deep, you can't beat it. And it's pretty much mistake-proof for a novice. Saves a lot of time and sweat.

Since the pad doesn't rotate when there's weight on it (it oscillates), I put a microfiber polishing cloth under the pad for the final touch. You can even use the Z6 or Z8 or some other Final Detailer spray.
