I did a full correction on a M3 just before winter that was "polished" by someone else. It took me 3 full compounding steps to remove all the swirls, buffer trails and scratches created by the previous polisher. A good portion of the hood and fenders required light wet sanding even. On top of that, there isn't a lot of clear coat left on the guy's paint now because of how much needed to be removed during the process, given the level of correction he was looking for.

Do you do detail work?
