Haha, its all good. I was just worried because I bought an M105 to use by hand a month before its coming out. I shouldn't be missing much though

I take it that after reading these posts that you all used these Meguiar's with an orbital buffer? Can you use these by hand instead or is that no good? I mean by hand doing the whole car, not just around door handles.
