Try the Meguiars DA Microfiber Correction System. Works pretty good!

IMO:
-Once you get the DA...
you'll find that switching from a rotary,
(that is a direct drive and has a circular
polishing action)...to a DA machine, (that
has a different type of polishing action)...

to finish up with the final polishing step(s):

-may be just what you need to achieve
the spotless finish you're looking for.

Not with a rotary (which he's using).

They are the same thing: Orbital polisher, RANDOM orbital polisher, Dual/Action polisher, PC - all the same

EXCEPT there are "wax spreaders" from Auto Zone Sears etc that ARE a type of orbital polisher, but they have no power for correcting paint, they are good for spreading wax - hence the nickname, but not for much else.
