For your first time out that's pretty darn nice.

In order to help you out more with your polishing or wet sanding we'll need to know the items and grits you are using.
Each of us has a technique that works best for us. So, you'll get a myriad of different techniques and just try them to see what works for you. None of them are right or wrong, just different. I've used a combination of techniques to get the finish I want.

Welcome aboard and don't hesitate to ask questions!

Use 2000 grid sanpaper, then long polishing with course compound ( until You see that this compound not giving any result ) next wash all body and remove compound from panle lines. When body dry use fine compound and polish like with first one, wash again and use finish compound. after that put all kit in one piece and put wax on body.
Hope this can help You
