I have been polishing motorcycle's for about six years know and it is not as hard as you think. Motorcycles will come out with a brownish haze if you do not use the white, why i have no idea but it does. You will not get that perfect shine to you because you are doing the job, I have been doing this for many years and I still hate the way my bike looks and everyone else loves it. It is you, trust me. To get rid of the real fine scratches do like they say in the booklet, i found that plain old baby powder works just fine to get the real fine scratches out. Once you have gotten to this point, take a piece outside in the sun, now get some Blue Magic metal polish and some [b]charman[/b toilet paper and only charman. use the toilet paper to apply and take off the polish and the piece should look great.
