Very BAD idea.
A decent m/c for polishing costs thausands, they are light weight and have a good clutch. Anything else ruins paint. Use a decent wax (Zymol) and use your hands!

Hi Mark - good to hear from ya again! Did a Walshy Day Thursday - sorry we couldn't hook up on it, but it was very last minute and I grabbed the fourth slot at the 11th hour

Anyway, heaps and heaps of stuff on here about electric polishers - www.detailingworld.co.uk/showthread.php?t=136

The Porter Cable machine (PC) is the tool of choice there - but of course correct use is vital! Definitely practice on something a little less treasured first

I would rather let a guy with 'palsey shave my scrotum than put that crap anyware near my pride and joy.
