And whenever you can hold the pad flat to the surface. Light pressure with your last cover passes with pretty much just the weight of the machine.
Also... very important... clean your pad after each section you buff. You need to remove any built-up and spent product before working with fresh product.
Make sure the paint surfaces are surgically clean and don't buff to a dry buff, you should always have a wet film of product on the surface.
Then wiping off residue with a clean, soft microfiber goes without saying...
Some paints are more polishable than others, some are not... so sometimes it's not about yo, your skill your products, it's just hard to do.
Clear coats are scratch-sensitive, that is they are easily scratched. Having a pad rotating against it tends to impart very shallow circular swirls that are called rotary buffer swirls, rotary buffer trails or holograms.

Anytime paint is being touched... the potential exists to scratch it... your job is to reduce the potential and you do this by making sure your products are of the highest quality you can obtain, everything is clean and you use your best skill, ability and technique.
As for why would a spray wax or Nano wax leave holograms?
Investigate what's touching the paint. What's inside these products? Are they completely non-abrasive? What pad are you using? Is it clean and soft?
Also, like stated, the appearance of holograms could be the wax or paint sealant...
Do some testing and see if the holograms can be wiped off, if they can then it's the product that's creating the appearance of swirls/holograms, but the underlying paint is okay.
