If you used a rotary polisher before, you may have noticed that it's very easy to splatter polish everywhere.

Here's the trick:

You squirt a line of polish on the surface.

You turn on the polisher, and move the polisher over the polish at 10:00. If you do this, the buffing pad picks up the polish without slinging it all over your car, your clothes, and your garage.

Once the buffing pad has picked up the polish and smeared it around, then you go about your work, buffing it into the paint, as you slowly move the buffer over the paint.
