I'm glad to be of help and happy you've found my info beneficial.
There are a zillion paint polishes on the market, some mild and some aggressive. To be on the safe side its best to start with a mild polish and work your way up the aggressiveness ladder. So I'd recommend a swirl mark remover to begin with. Meguiars and 3M both sell excellent swirl removers and are available at auto parts stores everywhere (Pep Boys, NAPA, Autozone, etc). These polishes are quite mild but have a little more bite than the cleaners in Klasse. Either polish will run ya about $10/bottle. Follow up with Klasse and your paint should look great.
I don't recommend those drill attachments. They're hard to handle/control sometimes, there's not really a selection of polishing pads, and that kind of polishing can put a strain on drill motors. If you have a friend who has an orbital buffer/polisher that you can borrow, that would be ideal. They're safer and easier to use and will do a better job for you. I'd lend you my Porter Cable in exchange for lunch at In N Out or, even better, Barney's Burgers, but I'm in Atlanta. And there's not a decent burger joint for miles and miles.
