Hi all.
Seeing as I have to do everything on the street, and no way to power anything, the Mothers Powerball could be a good fit for me. This is because you can run it on a cordless drill.
Has anyone ever used one?. I will be using it with zaino products
Thanks in advance

The Powerball is for polishing wheels. What are you planning on polishing--your paint??....oh correction. I see they just came out a version for paint.
Which Zaino products are you using? If you aren't using Zaino PC, then any portable buffer will work. BTW You can run a PC off your car battery with a 1500 watt power inverter.

would imagine it depends on how bad your paint is.
i'd be a little afraid to use it personally. then again it may do nothing much so you may as well do it by hand.
had jobbing is a tough one as well. i used the zaino PC polish with the klasse twins and i did get a lot of light swirls out but, there are still plenty left. but my MINI is an 03 yours may not be as bad.
It's fine for rims---but unless you like holograms and buffer swirls in your paint, I wouldn't use it anywhere else.

I have used AOI both by hand and with a RO. It took only slightly less time with the RO, but it did do a better job. Clear Seal does not need a machine, nor does the Grand Finale.
The looks and feel of that Powerball worried me. Maybe on rims it would be alright.
