Swirl marks from a buffer or created by hand are completely different and can easily be removed with a high speed buffer (Not an orbital).
An orbital buffer is a good time saver for cleaning paint and applying wax, but will not remove any serious damage like a high speed rotary buffer will.
A Random orbital buffer like the Porter Cable 7424 will do almost anything a rotary can do. There are very few cases when a buffer like the PC can't do the job.It is not just a "time saver" it is a critical tool in the detailing arsenal. I have been detailing for years and I don't even use a rotary. There are sooo many detailers who use rotaries that cause "sun marks" in the paint from inexperience.
