Default Beginner Detailing Questions

So I have been washing, waxing etc. for quite a while now but I now want to get into more detail with my car (Clay bar, polish, etc.) so I have a couple questions.

First off, I'm going to order Menzerna Intensive Polish... From what I read on the website if I apply it by hand it will only enhance gloss but will not remove swirls or scratches. for this a machine polisher is required.
What is the big difference between the $100+ polishers online vs. the cheaper ones I can find at a hardware store for under $50? Will any machine polisher do a better job than doing it by hand?

Another question is Interior,
My interior isn't a major issue however, it does have some spots that i want to take care of.
What do you guys like to use? Ive heard of people using steam and others that just use cleaning products.
I have Blitz 1z APC but what other options do I have for cleaning the interior especially the seats/carpet?

As far as the exterior I think I have the order down:
Wash/shampoo
Clay
Polish
Wax

Any input is appreciated. Thank you!
