    Re: mercedes swirl marks won't remove

    Pics would be helpful. Seems like everyone has paint questions today and no pics. What color is the Merc? First thing that comes to mind is a test spot and slower arm speed. After that you need to follow up M105 with a finer polish to remove the compound haze/lite swirls. Use a polishing pad or a light cutting pad and see if that makes a difference. Sometimes on some paints, M205 will cause more hazing then it clears up so you have to try different pads.
