For the polish, yes. Also, there are different pads/thickness for types of polish.
You'll want to dampen the pad + wash out paint and polish periodically during the detailing.
Try different speeds with the buffer: If it's too fast, it can burn the paint. Start slow and work up from there...

After polishing, I like to wax by hand.
