    Issue is, I'm having trouble removing swirls left from rotary, wool pad and SSR3.
    Next I used rotary with orange pad and SSR2.5, then PC with green pad and Poli-Seal.

    I'm thinking my 2nd step is not abrasive enough, maybe the SSR2.5 breaks down too quickly.

    Thought?

    b34tBoX- Maybe the 2nd step is instilling swirls of its own Are you sure it's still the wool/SSR3 swirling that you're seeing?

    I'm seeing the swirls being created with the wool pad combo. The 2.5 and orange pad doesn't seem to minimize the appearance of them at all, or should I say not as much as I would like.

    Try using the PC with an orange pad and SSR2.5, then the PC with green pad and poli-seal. In other words... I think you did skip a step!

    Ok. I'll try that.
    I figured I would get more correction power by using the orange pad with the rotary.

    Do it with the orange pad on the rotary, then do it with the PC with the orange pad to remove marks left by the rotary!

    Awesome, yeah, the orange pad and rotary was doing nothing to remove swirls!
