One Two Punch

Given your EM address, assuming you have a BMW, yes, you can use the 105 w/ an orange pad w/ the PC. I have used both this and PoorBoy's SSR3 on speed 6 on my BMW, and like you, it takes multiple passes to get rid of the deeper swirls. In fact, I haven't gotten rid of every last one of them, but quite frankly, it just got to be time to move on w/ other things in my life, haha, so I am satisfied, for now, w/ about 90% correction.

I then used a medium polish (both the 205 and SSR2.5) as a next step, then finished w/ SSR1 or Menzerna PO85RD on a Lake Country black pad. My technique was not good enough to finish w/ the medium polishes to my satisfaction.

i need to take some pics.
 
i hear 15 lbs is the correct amount. How do you find that out?
I had a friend look at the paint and he said it needs to be wet sanded. i may let him do it. I would not dare try it. He has been detailing for about 15 years.

Wetsanding can be beneficial in removing scratches and defects, but I can't see doing it to remove swirls. If the swirls are that stubborn, throw the PC to the side for a while and get after them with a rotary and some SSR 2 or 2.5 with a light or medium cut pad and follow that up with the PC and SSR 1.
