Sure

Flex speed 6.
Not much force applied to the pad at all.
Misted pad with ONR QD solution and applied a bead of M105 in a "corkscrew fashion" starting from the middle of the pad outward for the first application. Afterwards I put a bead across the pad or laid a bead down on the surface that I was working on.
Swirl marks were certainly reduced. I did get plenty of dusting and spots that needed to be removed by another pad/polish because the residue was stuck so badly to the paint.
I followed up with OP but the test subject was white and it is very hard to notice if additional polishing is/was needed.

Thanks A TON for helping out with this! I'd like to perfect my process with this combo to tackle some decent defect removal with the Flex.
