Thanks for the info. most of the trails are in places that arent visible,
(inner loop that's under a side ramp, etc) and i'm planning on applying
mylar to these locations.

I may have done a poor job explaining as well. for the most part the trails
are barely more severe than what novus can handle.

I ended up having success using novus 2 on a dremel polishing pad @ 5k rpm
