Very true.....if you don't want to spend a lot on a polisher, get the Harbor Freight 6" DA polisher, buy a 5" backing plate, a couple pads, and some compound/polish.

Should be able to get it all for around $100 or less.

Body shops generally use rotary buffers with wool pads, while it will make quick work of the ghosting, they usually leave swirls and holograms on the paint.
