I see that I have some hazing on one side of my car. It is not oxidation, but maybe something to do with the color. Should I use m205 or ultimate compound or should I just wash it off ?
 
I have an older audi which has a hard clear. You think 205 on a meguiars red microfiber would be fine?
 
im using the meguiars g110v2 on speed 5 which is around 58 opm

If it were me, I would try 205 on the area first, and if that doesn't do anything then you can go more aggressive with the 105. No use in doing the 105 first if it's not needed.

Crank it up to 6 when you do it, especially on a harder clear

I agree. Also they are probably from either improper washing or last time you polished you didn't finish down fine enough.
 
I would also use a polishing pad. When you say Meguires red I assume your referring to their cutting pad??
 
yes, however I am referring to the microfiber version
 
To me hazing is a lot of ultra fine scratches. Just makes the paint look dull not really like scratches or swirling like in the picture. Is that what your talking about or are they deeper scratches?? If it's what I described 205 and a polishing pad should clean it up...I've never polished with a cutting pad to know how it finishes...
 
Does the 205 finish LSP ready using the microfiber cutting pad??

You should only be going to a maxium of speed 4 on the DA with the cutting pad. :xyxthumbs:


If you have a foam polishing pad then I woulod do that with 205 on a test spot and see what you get. If not the go ahead with the 205 and the cutting pad but do speed 3 or 4 with 3-4 passes with light to moderate pressure and then 3-4 passes with light pressure and see how it finishes out.
 
So I should be doing speed 4 with 8 passes total, and if that does not work then speed 5 im assuming

Always stay at speed 4 never go above it. You will ruin the disc Slow arm speed with moderate pressure.
