And you're right. I found no matter how much time I spent with a DA/polisher, I can't get the same results as a pro. As with anything else, experience, and technique that pros bring to the table is almost always better than a hobbyist. Not always obviously, some very talented enthusiasts out there. But I'm not one of them.
