If you dont break down the polish properly, which is effectivly only doing half of what is needed, you are quite likely to inflict holograms, or buffer trails like this:

Looks like just about every car that comes out of a bodyshop when they've used Farecla G3 or G10!!

Yep!
Someone at work had a bloke turn up to "polish" his car for him, I knew nothing about it until he got there, or I would of offered to do it properly!
Basically, he got out his rotary, plastered some product over it (literally TONS) and proceeded to attack it. 30 minutes later and he was done

THe amount of holograms was insane..... simply because he had not worked the polish correctly
