Polishing by hand is good for paint in very good or better condition. Moderately swirled or worse and a PC/orbital is the only way to go.



yadda yadda, it works fine for me. how do you know what condition my paint is in or how inferior my results are anyway?



Did I say anywhere that hand polishing is wrong or bad?
Did I say anything about the condition of your paint?

Apparently you decided to read the first line, take offense and skip the rest. Re-read what I said.

I know detailers who have been detailing for many years who can't hand polish what a machine polish can do to remove moderate+ swirls. They can do a really good job, but it takes 10x longer and not as good.

AFAIK no one on CEG has ever posted real polishing before and afters or hand vs machine - just shine pics / pics at a distance. I'm posting my results which are quite obvious. Until you can show you can do the same by hand...
