If you see scratches that means you didn't get the coarse grit scratches removed. 2000 grit is so fine you wouldn't see anything after the megs 105.
I suggest you wet sand with 1000 until you are absolutely sure the 400-600 scratches are gone. Then sand with 1500 until the 1000 grit scratches are gone. One way to be sure is to sand in a 45 degree angle with the 1000 and then the opposite 45 degree angle with the 1500. When all the scratches are going the same way your good to go.

a nice trick to make sure you get all the scratches out is to rub in some powder guide coat and sand it all out, but you need to rub it right into the scratches as they are super fine and dont fill in with the guide coat as easy as normal scratches
this works well on most colors other than dark blue or black!!
