Im sure you sqwert and circle of polish onto the pad and work on a area say half the size of your bonnet, just going backwards and forwards going over it on steady speed, not full speed, and in a shaded area, not in the sun where the cars really hot.

Suppose just put a dab on polish on the pad for smaller areas and just work it until your happy mate.

What make is the polisher that you have mate?

If you check out Polished Bliss and also Detailing World they will have loads of helpul tips that should answer all your questions. Check on youtube for vids too as they can be very helpful.

Polishes Id reccommend the Menzerna polishes, also dont forget to apply sealant and wax after the polish

Get some pics up of your restults too.
