first time usage on flex 3401 - bits spent product flying around .. normal

[Toolhead]

using uber compound wg and after 2 sessions of 6-8 passes on the same spot.. im noticing bits of spent product flying around.. is this to be expected?

2nd question pls:

i still have a few swirls/ scratches.. these are not past the paint.but fingenail test.. i can feel it skip every so slightly into the scratches.. (white paint.. its dull white scratch part)..

should i attempt a 3rd session of uber into that section or am i removing too much paint by running a 3rd compound session into that area?

newbie questions sorry..but would appreciate the guidance so i know how to move through these types of scenarios for the rest of the car...

tks

That's called...

Pilling

The product looks like tiny pills correct?

Too much product.

Clean you pad often and/or switch to a clean dry pad.

tks mike.. yes.. tiny tiny bits of white specks....

im dialed down the drop sizes.. i was / am brushing off after each section pass .. probably its the size of the drops im applying..

im liking that flex 3401
