Just about finished up with my first polish job on my 2015 Camaro. I picked up a Swirl Killer, and plenty of pads, and have clayed the whole car.
The paint was in overall pretty good shape, with only 17K on it, and was stored for two winters, but had some swirls and surface scratches, and what looked like some water marks in the paint. " I went over most of the car with correcting polish/orange pad, and finish polish/white pad, and it looks a LOT better, but i still see some very faint surface marks and swirls. Im wondering If I am possibly moving too fast, or am I completely missing a step?
Like I said, the car looks WAY better, but its not perfect. Maybe I am expecting too much for my first time, and for a daily driver?
Before

Outdoors
The trunk and most body lines still have light surface scratches on them, and im just not sure what I am doing wrong, or if I am just expecting way too much out of my first time....you cant really see them unless right up on the car however.
Thanks all.
Thinking a Mini SK may help with all the small parts on the bumper, pillars, etc, so probably going to pick one of those up as well
