Detailed an Audi A4 today

So, I was bored today and decided to detail my cousin's audi. He always takes his car to these "Touchless Car Wash" places and I keep telling him to stop going there because they are ALL far from being a real and true car wash. That being said i'll post some before shots first.

Before:

After Wash/Clay Bar/Scratch X / KAIO & KSG:

Waiting for tomorrow before i throw on another coat of KSG and I'm still debating on whether to give it a wax or not.

I did all this by hand by the way...and i slept like a rock from being worn out by the Mr Miyagi WoWo method. haha! In any case i been window shopping for a "budget" type polisher and i came across this interesting find. What do you guys think? http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/cta...emnumber=66615

When my budget allows; i'll eventually upgrade to a PC or Makita that i often see/read about on here, as well as on other detailing forums.
