Did you do step 7 of the process? Basically to do it again. You might want to try using a finer grade of sandpaper for a final wet sanding step. There is no harm in using a buffer and paint polish either.

It might help if you posted some pictures. Lots of experts here would be better able to help you out.
 
use some 2000 grit sandpaper...soak it, keep it wet, then follow it with a compound and a cutting pad, then a polishing pad.
 
What kind of vehicle is it? Make, Model and Year? (I assume VW or AUDI, but there are a lot of other people that come by our Detailing Forum on VWVortex that own other makes also.)
