The only thing I can think of is that your pad speed is still too high, or possibly that you're working it a bit too long.. As long as the RPMs are way down, I haven't had any problems at all with buffer hop or hard to remove product. It's hard to say for sure, but it sounds like you're using the correct amount of product. It seems like I'm only getting about four passes out of the 1Z before it's pretty much gone.

I'm sorry to hear you're having such a hard time with this stuff. :/ Especially after me touting it as being so easy to use
well I kept goiong, and might have cracked it

I actually used a bit more product with a ring of polish around the pad, and it worked much better - nice pad gliding across the paint, maybe slightly longer work time, and much easier product removal. Still not THE easiest to remove, but not an issue.

Getting a good finish as well, so much happier now. Look forward to tryinging on the softer paint of my Saab soon, as I think this may be all it needs to clean up 90% of it
