Otherwise I’ll book in with the detailer.

Debatable...
I agree with Billfitz that if you don't have any experience with a polisher, the sharp edges are a high-risk area for over-polishing and damaging the paint.
Apart from that - a (dual-action) polisher is a good thing to have and is quite save, but you need to gain some experience with it first on flat areas, get a feel for it, etc., before applying it on more challenging areas.
So I'd also advise you to first give it a try with a hand polisher. A very good one to try is Meguiar's Scratch X 2.0, I can highly recommend it for hand-polishing. Use a mid-hardness polishing pad or a good MF towel. You cannot do anything wrong with it. If it does not help, you may need to apply a polishing machine... or seek professional help.
