Some pads you may want to try that I have had good results with - Buff and Shine Uro-Fiber Pads
Ok, I've been on my local shop today.
I couldn't find what you all guys advised me to use.
I ended up buying the Koch Chemie M2.01 "Hochglanz-Antihologramm-Politur" and a Flexipads Microfibre Pad "Finishing GRIP" for medium and hard paints.
They've promised I would get awesome results on the BMW hard clear coat.
But you know how it is, until I can't test it, I will not know. I may have to wait until Friday.
Any advice on this product?
I have that polish and it's a great finishing polish that really can get you some awesome gloss. Go back and see if they have koch chemie h8.02 which is a heavy compound. And get maybe a medium polishing pad to use with m2.01 after h8.02 with the mf pad. They have a medium cut polish also and it's with a 5 in the start. Since you have a hard clearcoat you might need a little more aggressive finishing pad than the least cutting they have.
You were right. It didn't made it any better than the HD Adapt.
I will have to try a more cutting compound. I don't know if jump straight to the H8.02 or maybe try something lighter first, like the H7.01 or even F5.01.
And regarding what Ronin47 said, I agree, but I don't think I'm dealing with RIDS here. I'm pretty sure it's swirls. I can't get them to show in the pictures but in plain sight they look like swirls.
If I can get rid of the swirls I can live with RIDS.

Hello again.
I got a new Flexipads "Cutting" microfiber pad and made a new test spot.
This time I choose to work on a rear fender, since it's easier to take better pictures from that angle.
I've managed to remove almost all swirls and only RIDS remain.
The paint color has improved a lot.
This car is not a DD and I'll probably keep it for many years.
I've measured the paint thickness and it's at an avarage of 164 microns. Sounds good for a BMW paint.
My question now is if I should go for a better cut or this far is good enough.
