Hey guys, I have this kind of haze on my hood which Im sure I caused from accidentally dry waxing with my orbital. Its the dip on both sides of the hood leading to my heat extractors. I can't if at all feel scratches. Is this possible (I understand its over the internet) to fix by hand with rubbing compound? Ive tried scratch x 2.0 and meguiars polishing compound, and it shines it up, but doesnt remove the haze. Is it just a weird reflection a lot of you have or is it caused by my pad hitting that spot on its side with no lubrication? Thanks for any input you can give me! Long live mustang forums! Haha.

You should be able to remove by hand with time. Why not use the DA or is yours an orbital only? Always make sure to prime thr pad with quick detailer to help prevent this

Be careful with rubbing compounds. If you can't feel the scratch then it should not take much to get the finish back. Don't go with a too aggressive compound or you will be correcting that scratches from that too.

Now I prime, and season my pads perfectly. Thanks to AMMONYC. I only have a 30$ orbital buffer. I plan on getting a nice DA around Christmas for myself if I can get a grasp on what product to use where.
