Now that I'm starting to get the hang on my first time machine polishing, there is still one thing that is driving me nuts! Every time I do a section (probably about 12x12 maybe a little larger), and go to wipe down the residue, It seems REALLY hard to wipe everything away with out at least a few streaks of product remaining. I can barely get through 1 MF before no remaining side (and I am using the 4-way fold technique) has at least some amount of residue that leaves a streak when I try to wipe the other streaks off.
The streaks seem to take a lot of pressure to remove as well, and I'm afraid I'll use too much pressure and put swirls back in. How many MFs am I supposed to be going through, it can't be 1 per section, right?
My technique so far is to use the 4-way fold as mentioned, and first twist it in the center of the section and rub outward until the haze is gone. Then I usually wipe with another side, then use an IPA mix to take care of the streaks and see if I got all the swirls out. It seems like the IPA is almost making it worse, but no matter what I do, it seems like I take care of 1 or 2 streaks, and leave 2 more...
