That`s not an uncommon discovery. Leveling/correcting paint is usually tougher than people expect. It`s nice that it didn`t need much correction in the first place, and it sounds like you did *NOT* overdo things and waste clearcoat.
IMO getting that done in 3 days was pretty quick! And I`m really glad you found it fun.
The GG6, especially with smaller pads, *CAN* do some truly significant/aggressive correction, but only if you use the right stuff (and the right technique for the products/pads in question). When I have serious work to do, I reach for a different polisher, but I can do it via that GG6 OK if I fit it with a 3-4" pad.
FWIW, I never liked Menzerna`s compounds/polishes (not a slam, just a personal preference thing), preferring non-diminishing abrasives and ones that work efficiently time-wise. I like M101 or (previous fave) M105, usually on MF cutting disks, for aggressive work and HD Polish, on somewhat firm foam pads, for milder stuff.
