Hello everyone, first off this is my first post and still kinda new to this detailing. But have been a lurker and ever ones work here is amazing!!!! Ok so ive picked up this truck its a ford lightning. Recently did a wet sand think it was 1200 grit but didnt use any other sand paper. Im happy for my first time doing it but still have these scratches. View attachment 54584View attachment 54585

Thats a bit aggressive with no other sanding/polishing. Those scratches youre seeing are from the sandpaper. You need to refine them with some 2500 grit, then a polish. My noob 2 cents, anyways
 
Well i did compound and polish with meguiars ultimate products. But their still there. Theres been times where im like ill just leave. But i cant haha

Yeah, unfortunately those polishes don't remove 1500 grit sanding marks. Youre going to have to go back with a finer grit paper, and THEN a polish with those after.
 
Thats what i was kinda afraid i was gonna have to do. Was looking into the m105 would that work for it?

You're going to have to go to M100 or M101 on a MF pad to get close to it working, and thats a long shot still
 
I understand now. Maybe ill end up going that route. Im happy with it but once your at the right angle can see the scratches.
