Chevy Volt bumper burn

[DonHyphy]

Welp it happened. Hit my first burn while working on a 2018 Chevy Volt rear plastic bumper. Its pretty marred up. I doubt theres much i can do for this but i figured id ask here first. Was using a milwaukee hand drill with a 4’ white microfiber pad and adams heavy correcting compound. Any input helps, thanks guys!

Oh man, sorry to hear that. Welcome to the forum though! I'll wait for your pictures to see if I can give any input.

Thank you Yo-Yo Ma! Just got back into a shop after a year hiatus and im still getting familiar with all the new adams products! Its nice to find a good forum through them!

So looking at your pictures I may be out of my league here, but my initial thought is, do you have a DA polisher at all? I'm not recommending that you use it on this burn spot, just asking because if you don't, they may be a way of preventing these burns in the future.

I do, but ive always been wary about DAs and wool pads because ive always thought they cut faster therefore have more chance to burn. At the moment i use the adams swirl killer althought i prefer forced rotation orbitals. What should i have done with a DA that would help prevent something like this. 

 

Edit: oops my bad lol not sure why i was thinking DA stood for something else. Yes i have a DA, i used it first but to no avail, being that its in a weird and small spot. Thats why i went to the hand drill

Unfortunately that one outside of my knowledge area, but given the number of experts on this site, I'm confident someone can provide a answer.
