No kidding - a high-quality random orbital polisher is a thing of beauty. For twenty years, all I used was a cheapo Black & Decker random orbital that had almost no torque, so while it was great for laying down a nice thin coat of wax, it was pretty much useless for any kind of defect repair. I also had "The Battleaxe" - a DeWalt DW849 rotary polisher that had all sorts of torque, but being a rotary, I had to be extremely careful when using it. With the wrong kind of abrasive, you can be down to the primer in a matter of seconds.

Then I got the Griot's Garage RO polisher and have never looked back. I think I've pulled out the DeWalt once since getting the GG polisher, and the Black & Decker is just gathering dust.

Beautiful pictures, BTW - you should be justifiably proud of the results of your labour.
