Default don't think the orbital cut it...

well i tried to polish my car this weekend and thought it looked great.....until i saw it in the sun....

i used 3m polish and an 9" orbital buffer with a foam pad. it looked great in the shade where i was doing it, but in the sun there are still a few swirls.
i polished the whole car twice, but i guess it wasn't good enough.

is this because of the polish i using or do i just really need a porter cable to get the job done??

Cheap buffers don't have the speed or power to get the job done effectively.
