use black first then white. always use a different wheel for each compound. and if you've got those sanded to 3000 grit, you'll only be stepping backwards with black, just use white and see how it turns out. if it's not good enough, then back up to black.

it kind of looks like the white is putting scratches in it, but the cloudyness is less, is there a fine rouge i should be using?

Yes. Blue is the finest rouge so far as i know. I use it as the last rouge.
My steps are brown, green, white and at last blue.
