What polisher should i get?
there are sooo many choices on brands and sizes and kinds and it is very overwhelming...i would like to keep in under 150-200 if possible. I have a 2002 MC that has tons of swirl marks from the previous owner not taking good care of the exterior. Comments are appreciated!

If you would like rotary. look in to Flex PE14-2-150.. FLEX PE14-2-150 Rotary Polisher, FLEX circular polisher, rotary buffer, circular buffer, FLEX PE14 But its way over price range.. I think its the best rotary.. easy to control. lighter. lower speeds for special polishing.. etc..

Have used the Makita polisher for years now polishing marble floors and columns. Have used this on my Monte now about 5 times, seems to be the ticket.

Have you ever had any experience with an orbital or a DA or anything?
and that grand am would be closer than you think, I beat 3800 N/A Montes and GPs all the time. There's only a ~550 HP difference.

No i have never used or owned any sort of polisher so thats why i asked this question...im not a dummy when it comes to detailing but would i ruin the paint or any chance i would with a rotary?
