97 Jeep Wrangler and 98 Honda Accord Soon

Hello everyone, this is my first post in the click and brag so please bare with me. My photo skills are not the greatest. I detailed a Honda Accord the other night and those pictures will be posted as soon as I get a chance to take some after pictures in the sun. I dont want to cheat and post the ones when it was cloudy. I may be an amateur but I want my results to show truly. I just wanted to test the optimum compound on my dads Jeep Wrangler hood last night so here are some pictures. This Jeep is not garaged and has a lot of swirls in it. I used Optimum Compound with the Burgundy Cutting Pad via pc and followed it with Optimum polish on a polishing pad, Cleaned with Klasse AIO, and topped with Poorboys EX with carnuba

Before:

Afters:

I know my results may not be the best, I just recieve my porter cable on Monday and have loved it so far. Check back soon for the Honda Accord before/afters. Here is a sneak peek of what I had to deal with

The after shots look good but we'll know better if you can get some full sun shots.
I loved being new to this, all the new information and trying things out for myself. Hope you enjoy this hobby.

You just polish with a product thats mild/moderatly abrasive.
