BUFFING QUESTION (tiny scratches)
I am in the process of buffing my red Z28 using a Porter Cable and Manzerna products. I am doing the work under a 500 watt Halagon work light. I can't believe the amount of fine scratches that this light shows. I am using an orange pad with the Intensive Polish which is removing 90% of the scratches after ALOT of work. I then used a white and blue pad with Final Polish II. After moving the car into direct sunlight I noticed very, very fine scratches on the surface. You have to be at a certain angle to see them but they are there. What am I doing wrong? Should I try the white/blue pad with the Intensive Polish? Or do I need to spend more time with the white or blue pad with the Final Polish II? Anyone with any suggestions? Thanks

Sounds like you may be seeing micro-marring, but it's difficult to know for sure without seeing it.
Make sure you're working the polish fully to avoid that from happening.
