If they just want something shiny with a ton of fillers and glaze I tell them to hit up the "detailers" at the car wash for a $99 special.
Griots RO polisher is great, I use one with 5" pads along with a PC and 4" pads. Gets all the work done I need it to.

My friend recently bought a 2012 GMC Terrain, from a local GMC dealership in Allentown. It looked good on the lot during the day, we were standing in a parking lot at night looking at it and noticed the paint was really swirled, I found out that the previous owner brought it to the dealership to have it run threw the wash once a week, so that explains it. Griots machine polish 2, and Griots finish, then followed it up with Poorboys white diamond glaze. The thing looks better then the brand new Terrains sitting on the lot. All it took was a entire sunday, but it really paid off for him, and I learned alot.
Now next, I need to pick up a 3in polisher, to make tight spots easier. But that can wait.
