    Do not use a MF pad to finish soft black paint. I REALLY like using Rupes Diamond Ultra Fine polish and a Scholl Orange Fine Cut pad to finish light marring on soft black paint.

    I.E. follow the advice of Paul A.
    Thanks for your reply, yes i'm using LC ultra fine finishing red foam for the PP ultra, but wiped it off directly after buffing (not letting the product cured) so i guess i will try to let them cured first for the other panels.

    Yes i'm not using MF pad for finishing, just for the step 2: polishing with menz PF2500, but for the PP ultra i used LC thin pro ultra fine finishing red pad

    Thanks for your answer
    Cheers

    Without all the confusion.Carpro essence with a orange foam or micropad will remove that in one easy step.If you want to refine it even more bu the car pro gloss pad.
