I didn't go heavy on correction. No swirls or hazing for sure, but deeper scratches are still visible under certain light. I did manage to get rid of one scratch with the DA so it shows it can be done...it just takes time.

I used microfibre last time but found removing residue a pita. This time I went for the Hex foam pads.

Everything I've read though says microfibre pads are much better for cutting so you're on to a winner. Look forward to seeing the end results. :thumbsup:

Link didn't work, but if its a Festool (total guess) then I bought a shark blade. Similar thing, just a bit cheaper. :thumbsup:
