Any advice?
Hey guys, if you saw my intro, Im pretty new to detailing, and I have some wurstions if there are any more experienced people here. My first question is related to polishing, as unusual as that sound headlight polishing will be my first service, and i watched a bunch of stuff about it done my own car and friends too for practice but it's just not perfect. I sand with sandpapers 800-1000-1500 and 2000 grit, then i use meguire's ultimate compound with a V2 Liquid elements foam cutting disc, then i use meguire's ultimate polish with a polishing disc from the same lineup, and then this same polishing cream with a finisher pad from again the same lineup, then ofc i use a protectant (i use k2 lamp protect quite cheap but its decent). My problem is though that whenever i go reallly upclose with a flashlight, it still has like hazing or scratches i saw circular and, had linear lines which i suppose were from the sanding, and i dont really know if it is normal to have that minimal scratching or im messing up one of my steps. I attached the end results, these are from the next day so there might be some dirt on it, but just so you see that the scratches are not visible through camera. So yeah in conclusion my question really is that, is it possible to get i perfect if yes where did i mess up to generate such a imo small yet annoying issue?
Any advice?

How does those scratches look like? Like from sand paper or was it there allready? If u sandpapered it to hard or if it is to abrasive surface can also do this. Next time try first with 1000 paper and on , depends of scrathes
