I'm using the DA Polisher with Ultra Compound to try to remove minor "swirls" (probably more like towel marks) from my car. The thing is, nothing is happening. It's almost as if my clear coat is made of steel or something. I'm using the correct pad (yellow "polishing" pad) and am applying moderate pressure. I've turned up the speed all the way to 5 but still same result--the swirls are not even moderately diminishing. The car is only about 2.5 months old (2011 BMW X3 3.5i, Vermillion Red Metallic). The swirls are only visible in direct sunlight; however, they bother the HECK out of me when I see them.
It was my understanding that the Ultra Compound was the most aggressive "consumer" polish on the market. Do I need to move up to some sort of professional grade solution? If so, what? What is the liklihood that such would damage my paint (I would rather live with the swirls than damaged clear coat or some other catastrophic happening).
Yes, I've read all instructional posts, watched videos and basically tried everything under the sun to solve my problem. I would greatly appreciate any assistance.
