I agree, not just because I wrote it but because I know each and every day someone is getting a new polisher and buffing out a car starts with the brain, not the buffer.
Here's another good article for anyone just starting out....

Sorry again for bumping this old thread.
Can any of you gentlemen advise typically how much AIO is needed on a typical pad?
I'm using a Griot's DA with McKee's 360 on LC thin pro pads.
I thought I remember reading somewhere on the forum that an AIO like 360 needs to be liberally applied to each pad.
Is this accurate for the most part?

Yes.
You use a one-step cleaner/wax like you would use a compound or a polish when doing paint correction, that is you use the produt heavy or wet. You don't use a tiny amount. You want plenty of lubrication on the surface, plenty of abrasives plus whatever other magical ingredients any given brand uses to abrade paint and make it look beautiful.
Here's a recent article I wrote with pictures to show you how to use an AIO
