Not if you want results like Dale's and mine. Some manufactures will say you can but I've never seen it. Ya Dale had guts to use a high speed buffer. With today's quality random orbitals and the improvement of compounds to break down under less heat you don't need to chance it with high speed.
I would agree with Dale and just start with the basic compound like Mequiar's or 3m, if it isn't good enough for you then you'll need to go to more 'cut'. You don't have to have a high priced orbital like I just got, remember I did the car the first time with 20year old cheapo 12 inch. I got the foam pads to fit it at Auto-Zone. I would avoid wool pads, with the slower speed orbitals the compounds don't break down well and it will leave a lot of what I call 'eyelash' micro scratches on paint.
Too bad you don't live near Charlotte i would give you the older orbital I have and the pads, I have the new one so don't need it
