Thanks, Bro for all the information,
but newbies like me dont know exactly what is the items that specified here:

1. Lots of wet sanding using the Unigrit 2000 finishing paper.
2. Moving to the G100A I used three applications of #83 with the polishing pad at speed 5
3. One application of #80 with a clean polishing pad at speed 5
4. Protected the finish using NXT Tech wax on a finishing pad at speed 3

what is G100A with 3 applications of #83?

Actually that's is under professional detailing.

Wet sanding is very hard and dangerous for newbies. Soak water proof Unigrit 2000 finishing paper in water for a few days before using it. And keep surface wet while sanding.

G100 is not available in malaysia, but you can get Rotary such as Makita in Malaysia (is stronger than G100 but dangerous to use as it might burn ur clear coat).

both #83 and #80 is Meguiars professional line product.

I post that is just to give u an idea or another option for you problem. I don't have the tools and skill to do that.

But You can visit meguiars malaysia forum to ask those sifu there for help. Maybe you can post your problem there ask them to solve the problem. There is few part time detailers who have nice skill and right tools so they might able to solve your problem.
