Hey guys. Im pretty new to this site and I recently ordered some Tropi-Care show car polish to use on my Camaro. I also plan to claybar the car before I apply the TC. I do not have the claybar yet, but I plan to buy one soon, probably a Meguiars. I have previously been applying wax via a Craftsman polisher, but now Im not too sure if that is the best tool. I looked up some specs on it and it said that it operates at one speed, 2800 opm. Should I continue using this on my car, or should I do it by hand. I know that the PC is good, but I am a poor college student so I am on a tight budget!!!!! Any other tips for me? I may check into using a swirl remover if I see that there are some noticable swirls on my car after washing it. My rear bumper was repained about 2 months ago from a minor bump in my dad had in the vehicle, and that part of the car doesn't look the same as the rest. Im hoping that a good claybar job will fix this. Thanks for the help!

2800opm is kinda slow for polishing, but for waxing i would think it would be okay, but you can probably apply it by hand just as quick. i know glanz wax just wipes on then off in like 30 sec.
I can't really describe what about the bumper looks different. My dad works at the dealer that did the body work and I was told that he got the car before it was 100% finished. They needed to buff or claybar the bumper or something like that first, but he told them it was good enough and brought in back to me.
