You would have to try to damage your paint with a Porter Cable.

The drill attachment seems like it would damage your paint much more easily.

Maybe the drill can work at lower rpm? after all, the pads are the same for either way. Although I feel slightly more comfortable just by handIf I happen to polish the whole car, that will be a pain in the a$$ tho.

OP, you can buy a PC knock off at Harbor Freight for $50-60, and it works just as well

You most likely wont be able to accomplish much of anything by hand. You've got to work a polish pretty good for it to do anything. Go to YouTube. Search for Junkman's videos. Your drill isn't a DA polisher, it's just an orbital. I wouldn't use one.

Hopefully. I've also seen some that are just an orbital attachment that look like they'd make your clear coat tear itself off the car and run screaming down the street.
