try rubbing the polish in more and then leave it for a few mins, you could be trying to buff the polish off while its still wet so it loosk smeary

A lot of polishes hate being applied to hot surfaces, as this makes the residue difficult to buff off cleanly. However, some polishes such as Poorboy's Super Swirl Removers are designed to be used in full sun without any problems - and they work well!

I used jofs wax polishes with a buffer to apply them and they it just polished off so easy.

When i used autogleam ultra deep shine by hand its harder to take off, i think its maybe to do with the jofs wax is alto more watery/thinner
