To add to the above, what you can see if hologramming, caused by using a coarse abrasive at high speed without finishing down properly. To remove it, polish the panel again using a very fine finishing polish and a soft finishing pad. Also, you need to use the zenith method - start off spreading the polish at 900rpm, then up the speed to 1500rpm to work the polish and break it down, then finish off with half a dozen passes at 900rpm and zero pressure to refine the finish. Should get you a far, far better result. A great finishing polish for Ford paint is Menzerna 85RE, applied using either a 3M Finishing Pad or a Menzerna Finishing Pad.
