Great work there, but I noticed a few very small circular scratches. Is this an optical illusion, or are there buffing marks there? Do you use a waterless wash? I've found that in particular, waterless washes can do that if you don't use a special waffle weave towel or if you try to use a low quality wash. Just curious...
