polishing help

im polishing my car right now and it seems to be not working at all, and when i turn on 5 or 6 speed it seems orange peel is appearing.

what should i do different, im using a pc and poorboys polish with sealant.


also my dads truck got professionally done last week and u can see lots of orange peel, but it looks really wet, did they mess up?

Re: polishing help

Well, for one your polisher won't make orange peel happen. Probably just more noticable now.

Polish with sealant isn't going to remove much defects if that is what you are going for?

Your dad's truck wasn't messed up. the shop just didn't put a lot of time into perfecting the finish.

Re: polishing help

You need to be using actual polishes.
