My GOD this bonnet is ANNOYING.
As some of you know I got my Kestrel DAS-6 yesterday and have been washing the car all bloody day.
Anyway, I'm currently in agony with my back and behind my knees :( IM ONLY 20!
Will be posting a few pics later, bare in mind that I have only just finished the bonnet and managed to get 2 out of 4 doors and 1 wing done.

Basically, the swirls would NOT come off the bonnet.
I did it section by section, one area at a time.
First - the compound glaze. About 10 - 15minutes of that with the compound pad.
Wiped down, then the same again but with the intensive polish on a lighter cut pad.
Then I used the final polish for about 10 minutes on a polish pad.
Once I wiped the polish off, there were still swirls :@ I think it was down to me wiping the polish, it seemed to smear.
So I did the whole bonnet again, and I think I've cracked it.
Did exactly the same and then used the DAS with my microfibre cloth to remove it (after using the final polish)
Pics soon!

were you pressing very hard? swirls and holagraming are normally a simptom of pressing too hard.
