    Strange light reflection after compound and polish?

    I'll try hitting it longer with black and m205. When I did it the first time I gave up quickly. Can you recommend a speed?

    Strange light reflection after compound and polish?

    My friend swears they were not there before I used the DA on it. I guess I'll list out what I did to make it more thorough. 1) Wash, clay, IPA wipe down. 2) DA with orange pad and ultimate compound at speed 5. From here I noticed the holograms already. 3) DA with green pad and M205 at speed 5...

    It was after compounding I first noticed it and assumed it was from compounding leaving behind an uneven surface and that the M205 finishing polish would take care of it. I then hit it with the M205 and it did not so I assumed I just did a bad job and tried again. Still nothing =/. I will...

    Strange light reflection after compound and polish?

    I'll see if I can capture on camera later (it is my friends car and he is currently at work). I did not clear any residual oils on the paint with IPA, I only washed with ONR beforehand, and clayed with Meguiars 34 as lubricant. Is there any other reason that could cause these light streaks...

    Strange light reflection after compound and polish?

    I washed and clayed a pretty swirled black hood and the proceeded to compound with meguiars ultimate compound using an orange LC pad with DA at setting 5. Most the swirls gt out and then finished with a green pad and Mrguiars 205 finishing polish. It looks good except for some reason the light...
