Do I understand you right when you want help to get a better correction on the picture you point your finger at?

Looks like you did get a great shine and clarity in the paint!

Do you have any before pictures?
What pad did you use on your 3401vrg and fg400?
How many times did you passes before moving to a new section?
Do you work with very clean and good quality microfiber towels to wipe off the polish compound with?

Sometimes when the paint is in very bad condition when you start polishing. It's hard to get all of the swirls and scratches off. Without polish the paint to be dangerously thin.
 
Tks sir.
My finger to focus defect on the paint after wash/ clay this truck.
My friend, owner this truck use 3401. Not me, I dont like it.

Sir. When ai buy swissvax from my dealer. This product follow with Cleaner Fluid Regular. But I don’t apply it before use swissvax. It’s right ?

Okay understand it.

Don't think it's necessary to do. If you do some polishing before you apply it or you top it on another protection it's fine to not use the cleaner fluid. But if you where to do a wash and wax to a car that has an old protection on it and no need to polish. Then I would use the cleaner fluid so that awesome swisswax can shine at it's best. So if you would need to clay the car before applying the wax I would also use the cleaner fluid.

Nice job! So thats the new ranger huh? They sure didn't look like that in 97 when I had mine. If it did I wouldn't have hated it as much. Are you not worried about those tires kicking up rocks and contamination sticking out like that?
