no, go to it. You can get all that done in a few hours, including lunch.

Default no, don't worry, you won't rub the paint off the car : ^ )

just use a good brand, apply with a decent applicator like microfiber, and use microfiber cloths to buff. It'll look grrrreat.

My neighbor always says I'll wash the paint off of the cars.

Default might be too much for you, make sure you give yourself enough time

with frequent breaks because it can be a fairly long and tedious process depending on how much you work each panel. I did the full routine two weeks ago and it took me 15hrs spread over two days.
