No roof but I also didn't compound the sides, just the tops for the simple reason I knew I wouldn't have time to do justice to the sides.
I did point out the swirls in the sides of the car to Eddie so he's aware and maybe on Thursday night we can tackle these panels.
I did however machine polish the sides so the wax would better adhere to the paint. And I did hammer down on the horizontal panels with the Flex 3401.
I don't mind buffing out cars live at a car show but I also know that 3 hours limits what I can and what I cannot do and do right.

How does the compound work with the rupes machines?

Car looks great Mike!
I'm curious why you used the PC for the polishing step instead of the Flex.
