Default Polishing aluminum w/ a cyclo

For those with polished cars, have you noticed that using a cyclo and fleecewraps (from Tom - PerfectPolish) and Nuvite can leave a few small swirl marks in the finished product?

I'm using his technique to polish some of the panels in my FFR (trunk, firewall) and they come out outstanding, except in direct sun i can see a few defects ; more under a hallogen light. Always in the final 'S' polish stage, and always from the cyclo (because if I hit them again they move to another spot on the panel).

Any tips for the final 'S' stage polish? I figure people who've done this on an entire car must have developed a flawless technique. Like if you use too much 'S' it may leave a few marks behidn? etc... etc... =)
