My mother-in-law said she get me a buffer/polisher for my birthday but needed to know what kind to get. The problem is - I don't know either. I haven't gotten too into detailing so I'm not sure what to look for.

Any recomendations? Post pics and links too if possible.

Keep in mind I'm not looking to start a side business either, just something that will make waxing and polishing the Z a bit easier and more professional.

why dont they just sell beginner kits so we can buff our own rides and not spend a ton.

This seems like a really good price and it includes some good polish and compound.
