here's my setup...i'm polishing a 95 red supra that has origional paint and the paint is in good condition given it's age.i'm using a pc 7336sp with a meguiars w8006 polishing pad and klasse all in one.following the directions i got on here it came out pretty good but i still have the fine scratches or spiderwebbing may be a better term.do i need to use a more agressive polish or a different pad to rid the paint of these very fine scratches?thanks in advance for any thoughts.
 
AIO isn't going to remove swirls. It's a chemical cleaner type product that leaves a very light acrylic sealant behind. To remove those scratches/spiderwebbing that your seeing, your going to have to switch to an abrasive polish. The more common combinations of polishes used here could be #83/#80 by meguiar's, optimum compound/optimum polish, IP/FPII by Menzerna, the SSR line by poorboy's, etc etc. All of thse will fix your problem given enough time.
 
The W8006 is a normal polishing pad. It's the W7006 that is the cutting pad.



I agree with Neothin that a stronger polish is needed.
