Orbitals?

Anyone know of a good orbital? Good for beginners; safe on paint etc.

I don't know but follow Mr. Miagi's advice:

"Wax On (left arm in counterclock-wise motion),
Wax Off, (right arm in clock-wise motion)"

Handwaxing is the best and safest for your paint.

RE: Orbitals?

One that is highly recommended by many detailers, and one that I use personally, is the Porter Cable 7424. I had always hand polished/waxed before getting one, and boy am I glad I did. This plus some professional products makes for quick and easy awesome results. I love mine. I still wax by hand, however. Use the 7424 for swirl removal and polishing.
