Want to try my hand at buffing/polishing this scratched up beater car I got so looking to buy a used polisher or borrow someones.

If someone wants to lend theirs out, will leave a deposit in case I ruin your polisher or whatnot.

Not looking for those cheap ones. Looking for a porter cable or similar

Meguiars has a random orbital attachment that goes on a drill. Got mine on sale for $35 at CDN Tire...does a pretty decent job and has a true random orbital movement like on a Porter Cable.
