WAX OFF!"
So I've been thinking about getting an electric buffer to use. I'm not looking for anything fancy or ultra powerful or some "uber" buffer. I just need something that'll take the work, and pain, out of my shoulders.

I know the feeling bro. I usually can get through a wash and vacuum ok anyday, But if I wanna wax her up, Man that might be a 2 or 3 day thing.
Some cheap waxes are easy to do but results aren't great. Even with an orbital polisher. I find Mequires Gold Class a pretty good wax and not to hard to get off. The best wax I've used is Griots best of show wax, but it is a workout to get that stuff off. Don't let that stuff hit direct sun.
I bought a cheap ass orbital polisher that has 2 handles, it will wear you out just lifting it, and it really doesn't get the wax off as good as I can by some elbow grease.
I dread waxing, but it has to be done. And a good job won't leave those dreaded swirl marks.. I may look into that porter cable one though. It looks pretty easy to handle.
I used to keep my car spotless, but after 4 years it's getting harder to do..
