I've never expected a polish...regardless of its original color right out of the bottle...
to remain that same color throughout its buffing-cycle/working-time.
Although there are the DAT and SMAT polish abrasives...
I look for how the polish appears during its different "breakdown stages"
to determine how long to "work the polish".
Don't want to over/under work a polish.
Some polishes will turn transluscent, some clear, when at,
or nearing, the end of their buffing-cycle/working-time.
Some can be deemed to have done their job at other intervals during the buffing-cycle.
A Must Have!!...In order to afford myself the best "looking-opportunity"...
I attempt to utilize good lighting at all times.
Takes a lot of the guesswork out, during a polishing-session.
NOTE:
Polishes' buffing-cycle/working time will vary due to factors such as:
Panel's and ambient temperature; humidity; machine/machine- speed;
arm-speed/movement; pressure; pad; paint-system.
Not so much, I dare say: Due to their color.
