I am working on a 2011 328 (crimson red) been sitting outside. Typical rain spots, swirls etc. I used M105 and followed with P106, but could not get the the finer scratches to polish out. Any advice? Sure would love the get the same look. Awesome job!

depends if the paint is on soft side or harder , what tool u use what pads u use , i am not familiar with p106 , i follow 105 with 205 , sip most of the time.
i will advice to do a test spot before u mess with the whole cra that way u find the right combo ( pad/paste) for your car.

*************
I used an orange pad with M105 and made several passes (about 6) at 1500 RPM...Followed up with Menzerna P106 (finishing polish) on a white pad. I wanted to try it versus using M205~ just for a switch. The BMW paint could be harder than the older models I have worked on.
