Alright, I had some scratched in my tail fairing. I wet sanded them down so the scratches were no longer there. I my last grit was 2000. I started buffing with 3m rubbing compound. Now I have this cloudy/hazey look to them. Anyone have any knowledge on what product to use to get that out?

after rubbing compound use a wax and itll come right back.. rubbing compound is not meant to shine really, its more like really really fine wet sanding.. itll take oxidation and some light scratches out.. then polish it up with your favorite wax and your good..

go over it with 3m imperial hand glaze it will take the rest of the compound scratches out then a coat of wax
