Paint colour on the pad

[Dblock]

If you are using a da and you havent burnt the paint, its coming up pretty well but still has swirls but the paint colour is on the pad does that mean your doing something wrong?

No I polished it, it was really cloudy and faded. Took alot of swirls out but there is still alot there. It was a pinky colour and was horrible and cloudy. Now its RED. But the red of the paint is on the pad i was wondering is that bad?

EDIT sorry as above the non polished bits look really poo all cloudy and pink.

thats normal, when i did a red/pink corsa b my pad went a dark red colour

it will be painted using a non laquered paint... ( can never remember the names) so basically your just cutting the paint down rather than the clear lacquer which you wouldnt normally see on teh pad... this isnt a problem aslong as you dont take it to far

Just a straight colour mate. No big deal.

It's a big deal if you get colour on the pad when polishing a clearcoat car...

Not necessarily. If the car has seen a recent s**t spray booth, over spray will come off on both claying and polishing stages.
