try using #1 with the white pad

Super Member
what machine are you using? what speed are you working the polishes on? and how long are you working the polish?
your last picture looks like you are getting close to some good results, but in the end you are going to have to use the white polishing pad and either xmt 2 or 1 to finish the surface.
Also, I dont know anything about mustang paint, like the clear coat hardness, or what they respond best to. There are quite few stang owners on this board though, Im sure they will be happy to assist you.

Ya on that last pic I just wasn't sure if its close and thats stuff the xmt3 is leaving or if its heavy stuff left from the yellow pad combo. I'm using the PC set at 5 going side to side and working it until its clear. Ya I know I'll keep getting finer in polish and compounds thats why I ordered basically the whole line of xmt stuff. I just can't wait until I'm done and its a mirror. Thanks for the quick replies.

In time out
Agreed, try a few passes with a white pad and XMT 1 combo.

Use the XMT 1 on a white pad and go slowly over a 2x2 section. Let it break down properly and you should see it flash.

Awesome I feel much better now. I didn't want to have to find a reputable person in the area to fix it for me. Good work is hard find these days. Thanks for all the help and comments guys, much appreciated

Show a picture of what looks like when you get it corrected. I'm curious on what it looks like.
No it's not obsessive compulsive to have the right gear to make your car look wonderful.
