Nice to see another 997 owner here!!
And another black 997 as well!!
Unless you have a whole lot of swirls from poor washing/drying etc, which BTW is very easy due to the softness of this paint, I'd still do smaller sections at a time with a white pad for finish polishing. If the finish has swirls, then yes, you need to step up to a more of a cutting polish. However, seeing this paint is very soft, use a white pad. Orange pads can be a bit too agressive on this paint.
Always, start soft, then work up if you're not getting results. Same for polishes, less abrasive first, work up.
I've seen orange pads produce haze on black 997 finishes if used incorrectly.
Dedicate enough time. Do not rush! Work the polish until fully broken down.
Some MF towels can be a bit too agressive as well when wiping off. You have to find ones that have enough bite for polish removal, but not too much or you're going to be in a vicious circle. Try 100% USA cotton with all trim removed and washed enough to be soft.
If you're using a "PC" bring up the speed and add enough pressure to keep the pad following the contour of the car, not too much to crush the pad or stop the "PC" from moving correctly.
106FF is a very light finishing polish used to remove very light sanding marks and mostly used on fresh paint. Then there's PO85RD which has a high gloss level and very very low cut level and used only for fine polishing. Both polishes are for hard clearcoat "Ceramiclear" and contain a whole lot of oils to run longer polishing time.
You can then maintain the finish by using a light cleanser such as P21S or other ones that are also
AIO types (Klasse or Zaino).
Just be careful using MF's on the car as well. Not only do you have to worry about marring the finish, get too close to the front latch and have too much static from the MF's and you'll blow the latch module. Since yours is a '07, I think this has been addressed by Porsche. But, if the latch pops open, you may have this issue, just let the dealer know and they'll switch it out under warranty.
Enjoy your C2S!!
I sure enjoy my C2S!!!!
