All that cheap Simoniz polisher is good for is applying and removing wax. It doesn't have the ability to do any paint correction. If the surface is properly prepared, it's just as easy to apply and remove the wax by hand.

It's a whole different concept. A PC is a dual action machine with variable speeds.

Search Google, they've got a price shopper that works pretty good.
