I just put "how to use a random orbital polisher" in Google search - the first 3 videos will get you started, and the links that follow are also helpful. Good luck!

Yeah pretty simple if you bought a beginner type polisher. Just make sure you get a couple pads for each different type of use (compound, wax, sealant, whichever) Also no need to over do it on the amount of products to use on a single panel. Oh and let the polisher work. Let it do its job, no need to force things. If you understand what I mean.

gave it a whirl - left some marks that came off pretty easy - for now I’ll probably hand apply and use the polished to remove - the application process takes a bit of practice - thanks for the info

The polisher is best used to polish - you can't move your hands fast enough to get much swirl or scratch removal/correction. It's easy to apply & remove wax/sealant by hand.
