Yeah, M105 will sometimes leave light marring because it's simply quite abrasive and doesn't break down. Once the oils/etc. are gone there's nothing left to buffer the abrasives.

Spritzing some #34 on before buffing off the residue can help a little, but sometimes the solution is simply to use a somewhat aggressive next step to remove that not-so-micro marring. I've done well with M205/orange when the problem was more severe than normal.
