One thing I use and that you might like is a 3" backplate on a drill. It's very good for tight spots likes door jambs or spot repairs like remove scratches.
I got my backplate in a 3M headlight correction kit for 30$. It came with a 3" orange pad (light cutting), sand paper disks, a bit of compound and polish. You can get various 3" pads here. I have some for heavy cleaning (yellow) that I don't use on car paint, and some red one to apply wax and sealant although I don't use those often.
Orange pads are very versatile, you can use them with compound and with polish.
Combined with a Cordless drill it's a wonderful addition to my polishing Tools. I like it a lot better than the 3" Griot Garage polisher that has very little power and is nothing more than a wax spreader for me.
Thank you all for the great replies. Since I'm a newbie, I think I'll go with the Flex PE8 kit as it sounds like it will do everything I need for the cars right out of the box and I like the small sizes. I also might be able to use it in the art room for polishing copper plates! (I'll keep looking for a scrubbing device for the water feature.)
