I think it may have been that I spread the polish too thin, causing it to dry on the paint before I was able to hit it with the buffer, but if I didn`t, it would sling like mad. I switched to SSR 2.5 and it worked like a charm. I tried another pad too, with and without spritzing it with a quick detailer (S&G) before starting. Anyone have any ideas of what I may have been doing wrong?
