I'm using Chemical Guys compounds and polish, starting with V34 and ending with 36 because I can't find my 32 and 38. Using Lake Country 6" orange buff pad. This is a golf cart I did for a guy. To remove some light peel and nibs I powersanded affected areas with 1500 disc 'damp,' and then 3000 grit pad. When I try to buff it looks like shit and it's an ok shine but still not as shiny as the untouched clear. It lacks optical clarity.
I had this problem on a hood I painted last year too. The hood was cleared with Universal clear, this cart is cleared with Urekem medium solids clear because it's inexpensive.
I think these Chemical Guys compounds are from 2014. It's a huge jug and hard to shake up. Not sure if all the abrasives eventually settle to the bottom or what, but I have no idea why I can't get this to buff out shiny anymore.
