I bet that took some effort to use on a whole car by hand. Its not easy to get a consistant finish by hand without a lot of experiece though.

I always recommend claying before polishing as it can make a bigger difference for less effort. Polishing to remove swirls/oxidisation is a different kettle of fish especially by hand.

There is an ultimate polish which is used after the ultimate compound and before the wax

Surely it should be penultimate polish then! :D

And whilst we're in a frivolous mood, antepenultimate compound. :wink:
