Zey- Could be that the lighting you used to inspect lst Sunday wasn't right for showing holograms. Or yeah, the #82 might've hidden them a bit.
Yeah, some people have reported holograms with the #82/9006 combo. There are more than a few people who find #82 tricky to master.
I'm not that familiar with the
Meg's products you used, but IIRC you're using too low a speed for all three steps. Also, many people who use those products (including Mike Phillips, who certainly knows what he's doing) follow up their rotary work with the PC, using something like #80, just to make sure they don't have any holograms.
