Machine speed too low (4)
Working too large an area (maybe 50% larger than it should have been)
Dumb, huh? 100% user error on my part, but at least I didn't damage anything.
I was using the recently replaced
Sonus SFX line and had a huge problem with dusting, but again, that was probably me working the stuff too long, mostly because (in hindsight) I wasn't getting results due to my improper technique.
I must say though, that
Meg's #80 can be worked for a very long time and I really like the results I got with it. There were quite a few swirls in the month old paint on my Camaro, and now they're gone. I did my Miata yesterday, which is the car I had all the problems and lack of success with previously, and probably 95% of the swirls are now gone.
In the admittedly poor picture below, which is the driver's door of the Miata, I taped off a section and worked the right side. You can clearly see the swirls are gone (the vertical line is from the product built up against the tape, the line coming down from the right side lamp reflection is a reflection too - not a paint defect). Keep in mind the left side was worked previously with an obviously poor technique! This car is garage kept and has only been driven 3000 miles in the year I've owned it.
