Absolutely, but not many can operate a direct drive rotary effectively, I've seen many professionals do a less than stellar job, and actually ruin good finishes. Always best to start on the safe end...

Ahh, if they ruin a paint job with a rotary: either they are not professionals, or the paint job is sub standard.

Midnight Blue.
Unfortunately we have them too.
My front bumper had a good paint job last year.
At now It's plenty of little rock chips but I tried to disguise them with a Touch Up Paint Kit.
Materials I used to complete the detailing process:
Wash:
Sonax Gloss Shampoo and wool lamb glove 100% natural
Clean up (decontaminate):
Clay bar: Wolfgang Elastic Poly Clay
Polish:
The machine: Blaukraft
Step 1: Menzerna Intensive Polish PO 85RD3.02 + yellow foam (cut)
Step 2: Menzerna Power Gloss + green foam (polish)
Step 3: Menzerna Final Polish + blue foam (finish)
Sealant: Poorboys EX Sealant with Carnauba
Wax: Poorboys Nattys Paste Wax - Blue (ideal for dark paint)
(after sealant I waxed the car twice.)
It took me about 8 hours, but I have to say that my friend Fernando helped me in the polish procedure with the machine.
It's too hard.
Thanks everybody for the comments
