Guys I used the WG Twins today and noticed something odd after I was finished and pulled the truck out into the sun. I had holograms. I know the dealer made a mess out of the truck applying a glaze and using a rotary. The holograms didn't look like the ones I had from the dealer. These followed the tight pattern on my GG DA. I used a CCS while pad with the WG final polish. I didn't see these in the shop lights or the work lights so I put on collonite 845, buffed off and pulled it out in the sun.

I applied the 845 with a CCS Constant pressure Gold pad on speed 2, which really was two slow but it worked. Do you think maybe the Gold pad put the markings in the clear? I also put way to much of the 845 on the pad as it was very warm and kind of burped out of the bottle. I had enough on the pad to spread it over one whole side of the truck. It did haze slightly do I am pretty sure I had enough wax on the pad.

It sucks because the paint looks amazing except for the swirls.

Do you think the White pad could have done this? I didn't overwork the product... or could the gold pad actually do this?

Any advise would a great.

BTW the truck is a 2003 Chevy Tahoe so I expected the paint to be pretty hard.

Is it actually holograms or could it be streaking from the Collinite being applied to thick. Could you post some pics? A white or gold pad leaving holograms with a DA and a final polish is kinda hard to do.

could it be marring left by some WG polish that was trapped in those CCS dimples and didn't get a chance to break down?

Both good points, I will try to get a picture. I guess I need to break out the SLR and try to capture what is going on.

Yeah, that sounds to me more like wax streaking, perhaps the 845 isn't playing nice with the residual oils from the polish.
