Towel marks? What speed did you use?

Looks to be very soft paint!

Try PF with a black pad.

I would have to agree after looking at them after you mentioned that towel marks.

What towels are you using?

Sometimes it doesn't matter what towels you're using, it will marr the paint.

Yes I have Meguiar cutting and finishing MF pad


I'm using a towel called "Pluto"
So u guys think they are caused by a towel??
I didn't know that's possible....

Should I use a high gsm towel then?
Like cobra 530?

I was on speed 4-5

Slowwwwww the speed down! Try speed 2-3.

Yes, on soft paint, towels can definitely marr the paint!!

I thought you were going to say Dewalt or Makita. Yeah slow it down on your last passes. And slightly ease the pressure as your finishing up the area till your completely off. (Just don't make a mess)

Then make sure the towel is clean, and ease the pressure on the towels as well.

Prime the pad first through right?
