I've been working over the past week or so on my wife's minivan. I decided to do hers first to get the hang of working with the new items I just received. For the most part, the minivan hasn't looked this good in the 6 years we have owned it. There are still some hologram looking items when seen in the bright sunlight (surprisingly, my halogens do not show it well) and I'm pretty sure it is my technique that has caused those. I'm looking for some advice on what I can do to fix those. I thought I had followed Junkman's videos exactly, but I'm certain something wasn't correct (moving too fast, too much product, etc, etc, etc).
Here are some picts which try and show the problem and the minivan in all it's glory
First, I had a supervisor:
Some of the before/after pictures:
Hood Before:
Hood After (flash test):
Mirror Before:
Mirror After:
Front Door Before:
Front Door After:
Full Van (Just polished and no wax)
Now, my issues: (white things that look like cloud wisps are the holograms)
(also, please excuse the dust, I cleaned it less than 15 minutes before the picts)
I've thought it might be left over polish residue, but I cannot get it off no matter what I use (DS/MF, wash, etc).

Hi all,
I've been working over the past week or so on my wife's minivan. I decided to do hers first to get the hang of working with the new items I just received. For the most part, the minivan hasn't looked this good in the 6 years we have owned it.

I thought I had followed Junkman's videos exactly, but I'm certain something wasn't correct (moving too fast, too much product, etc, etc, etc).
