Polish for a mildly-swirled Acura?

Hi everyone. I have an '04 RSX-S (Arctic Blue Pearl) that I polished about 1-1.5 yrs ago with Hi-temp Medium Cut. I wasn't entirely satisfied with my results then, and I've gotten some more swirling since then.



I'd consider the swirling to be minor to moderate - the finish has decent gloss (although depth isn't so great), you can still clearly see the metallic flake, and the pearl effect is visible, especially in dim ligting (i.e. when shining a flashlight on the car in a dark garage). But the swirls are clearly visible in sunlight.



Anyway, I'm about out of HTMC, and I'm looking for something to replace it. Any thoughts on how SFX-2 would fare with an LC white or orange pad? Thanks!



If anyone is wondering, I'd be following up with RMG (possibly) and Carnauba Moose wax.

I'm using a 7424, should've clarified.



That was what I thought. I would go with M105/205 combo as I've found they work great with the PC. Try the M205 and a white pad first, if it's not enough cut try the M105 with orange then follow it up with the M205 and white.
 
I polished a black metallic with a flex DA and used a white pad and sip. The paint came out 95%. It was shocking.
