That's your first mistake. I clay every car before I compound/polish it out. If I don't clay, the pad tends to skip around more and gets a lot DIRTIER. Also, you just don't get the same feel to the paint. You might also want to get a brush and clean the foam pads every often. Also a spritz of detailing spray here and there will help to keep the temps down a little bit and provide more lubrication for the pad to move on the surface along with not drying the polish out too quickly. Keep at it, rotary work is VERY rewarding.
