Default Does the motther's mini power ball work on paint?

It doesn't say anything about using it on paint. I was thinking it'd be good for getting around mirrors, in the fog lights (TA) and some other spots like around the Trans Am emblems on the doors and ground effects.

I can't do a real good job buffing around those areas with my regular buffer.

Will it be safe to use? I don't want swirl marks on the paint or anything like that.

No, it'll scratch your paint.

that thing doesnt even work well on wheels, it's a waste of money. All it is is a piece of foam on a stick

What I do for those spots is get a box of popsicle sticks and wrap one end in a microfiber towel. It gives me enough leverage for tight spots (i.e. around lights, between body panels, etc.) and doesn't scratch.

Yes, it does a great job of screwing up your paint! In my experience it has worked wonders on my polished wheels, I love it.

Thats a really good idea, I'll have to do that.
