Change pads, speed or change your compound

The most I have taken out with a Flex is 1500. That was with M105, though. With a DA, I have removed 1000 grit marks with a Surbuf pad and M105.

It all depends on the paint. My experience was with a moderately hard panel. If yours is on the harder side, the above strategies may not work as well.

On dark hard paint can be a problem even 2000 grit. For extreme situations I use the yellow LC pad and presta cut cream or power gloss but get ready for some serious swirls with these combos.

The key is to finish the job sanding. 2000 is not finished. Go over it one more time, even lightly, with 3000. The difference is amazing. Polishes out faster and better.
