I use a rotary for almost all my work, but I never had good results with M07. Small lumps or spots start to accumulate and it becomes a real bear to remove. I apply it by hand, with a mf towel folded into a 4X8 inch pad. Rub with a bit of passion, keeping it very thin and it will be easy to remove. I've tried terry pads, foam pads, mf pads, a r/o polisher and a rotary, but hand application with an mf cloth works best for me.

Totally agree with Bill!

I've tried M7 with a DA, random orbit 'waxer', and rotary...took me a long time to realize, "Do it by hand."

As both BillyJack and BillE have said, working with #7 Show Car Glaze by Hand will be much better than working by Rotary. Technically the #7 Show Car Glaze is formulated to be used by Hand, Orbital, or D/A Polisher. When used by Rotary the product tends to gum up and can be quite difficult to work with. If you don't want to work by Hand #5 New Car Glaze would be a great alternative that can be applied by Rotary.

If you work on a modern clear coat paint and want to polish/ jewel the surface with a finishing polish + rotary buffer I would vote for M205 Ultra Finishing Polish (900-1000 rpm/ finishing pad for jeweling, 1000-1200 rpm/ polishing pad for polishing/ minor defect removal) .
As Rick mentioned above M05 New Car Glaze would work as well.

On single stage paints M07 (D/A or by hand) or M80 Speed Glaze will give you great finishing results.
