For your reference, these are the notes I gathered from searching multiple web sites. btw: The recommendation you found suggesting two passes of nano w/ two different pads is the first I've heard doing that.
Your finish is a bit more marred then mine, you might want to use a more aggressive pad w/ the SIP like the yellow pad then the orange I plan to use.
I'm gonna error on the non-aggressive side (pads, speed, etc) - worst that can happen is after using SIP the first pass I find I didn't get much of the marring off, then I'll repeat w/ a more aggressive pad and speed. And by then I will have learned how to handle the Flex better.
5.5 Low Profile Orange Light Cutting Pads
use w/ menzerna SIP
nickel dime polish for 18 x 18 inch section
blot / rub polish from pad onto surface b4 turning on buffer to avoid splattering
start Flex at level 1 and move quickly
then up it to 3 or 4 and moving 1 inch per second over lapping 50%
just b4 poilish breaks down drop to 1 and do one last pass to minimize hazeing
3 – 5 mins until broken down
as polish breaks down lighten up the pressure and increase movement
remove w/ microfiber towel
