Detailing Question
Long story short I'm planning on detailing my 2012 wrangler. It is black. I am afraid to use my porter cable. I'm afraid to swirl. Should I polish by hand, then wax, or just wax? Not sure what to do with new car paint.

I always hand wax. The only time a buffer was used on my car was when it was repainted, they used a buffer and some 3M shit to make the front of the hood blend in with the front fascia.
Didn't make much of a difference. |
brand new vehicle, just wax. No need to buff unless there are problems in the paint.

Yeah i figured just wax. I was a little drunk when i wrote this from my phone. Autocorrect win for once.
I'm going to clay first to make sure the dealer didn't put any wax on there or anything. |

Yeah, all you need to do is wax it. There is probably is some shitty dealership wax on it, so clay-barring is a good idea. I'M AFRAID TO SWIRL! |

I'm willing to bet there are even a few swirls in it already but to have a vehicle without a single swirl mark is simply impossible. Why not use your PC to apply the wax? Won't hurt it at all.
I would clay and maybe even use a pre-wax cleanser/polish and then wax, although the polish probably isn't necessary. |
