Default Mother billet polish on a spiral wheel. Can i do this?

Hey guys. As you can see in my pic my project is just about done. I hand polished with mothers billet polish after i was done with the spiral wheel. I got rid of most of the spider webs the red compund made. What i want to know is can i smear the mothers on the piece and then hit it with the spiral wheel to create a better and faster finish? It's hard to do it by hand and it takes too much time if you are getting paid.

I put Mother's on a wheel before and did not have much success. It works alright, but you will still end up buffing it off by hand. That looks really good by the way.
