Yesterday, I did a little bit more of YouTube University, then went back out to the Pig Barn just to clean up my shop but couldn't leave the hood alone.
I started with my Makita, a white (medium) pad and the Chemical Guys V36. Looked great until I got down at the right angle and could still see scratches.
Not knowing what I am doing, so I dug out an Orange pad and used the M100 with the Makita. I could still see scratches. Very disappointing and frustrating.
I then used the same pad and M100 but on my Dewalt DWP849X polisher. It was like a magic eraser for scratches! I still need to do the next two steps but it is definitely working now.
There are a few spots that I need to go back on, mostly at some of the hard edges that I was kind of scared of burning through.
