I invested in a Makita commercial type buffer about 15 years ago. One of the best power tools I ever bought. If you Are going to compound, polish, & wax anything over 30 feet, you need a commercial quality machine, period. Last haul out I followed Mainesail's alternate method with 3M super duty compound, 3M Finessit, Meguiars'#9, Collinite paste wax. Came out great! The guys in the yard were even impressed; wanted to give me a job!!! Will haul out in the fall; might try Presta products next time.
