I just placed an order for Menzerna super intensive polish. Will that do the trick or will I need a compound? or even a more powerful machine?

I'm positive that I have the correct buffing arm speed and pressure. I did mark a black line on my backing plate. I'm always monitoring the speed and adjusting pressure. I do horizontal and vertical passes and I overlap by 50%. I am positive that the marring appeared after I ran the pc through...

So I bought the highly recommended Porter Cable 7424 XP along with the proper foam pads and a variety of different products from different companies. I started by washing my car ( two bucket method straight lines ) followed by a clay bar. I bought some meguiars heavy cut compound and put an X on...

Yeah, but I'm using an dual action buffer. I tried using an orange foam but somehow I am putting more swirls in it! I put 4 dabs of wolf gang total swirl remover on the pad and work in small sections over lapping by 50% each time. Somehow when looked at close, I can see more finer scratches in...

Michigan. I keep trying with swirl remover, but when I get a closer look I see a ton of mirco swirls.

Well some parts of my car like hood and tail gate were repainted. And the shop I took it too, tried to buff everything out but there are still a ton of swirls and peel. Then I think I messed it up more with my dual action. I can now see buffer trails in the hood. So I took it back and they...

I am using 5.5 inch pads. Right now I'm using chemical guys pads. Should I stick with them? Also what color pads should I get?

The pad was brand new and I did a light spray of water to soften it. I cleaned the pad by rinsing it and letting it air out before I used it again

Thanks what would you recommend for a finer polish? 

Here is the products I am using. I will put more pictures and a video of my process on tomorrow

It's a black vw gti, in some spots it looks good, but when I turn on my assistive light on my phone and it look terrible. I'm pretty sure I'm going the correct speed and I'm not pressing too hard. I've spend nearly $200 in products trying to get these out and nothing is working

I will post a video tomorrow. I'm using 5.5 pads from chemical guys. I tried the wolfgang swirl remover and that didn't work. So I bough 3m machine polish and that didn't worth either. I have a bottle of Meguiar's heavy cut cleaner, but it says it's for a rotary.

So recently I bought a pc 7424xp along with high end car care products. I'm using wolfgang swirl remover with a hex logic foam cutting pad. After spending 45 min on a 2x2 foot section the swirls are still there. I've watched nearly every video on how to do this, but I can't seem to get it right...
