You said it!

I have done a few of those and it is nearly impossible to get a perfect finish. I have tried using brand new microfibers to buff off a final polish and it will scratch let alone applying a wax or sealant. My best result was with RMG.

You'd probably get more responses in the general car detailing forum.

if you can get your hands on some 3M perfect it 3000 ultrafina se that might do the trick.

use a really fine polish like menzerna FPII or the 106ff and a blue finishing pad, or a white heavy polishing pad. two passes of a fine polish might be better than one pass polish and one pass fine polish....
