I'm trying to remove heavy oxidation from white 2008 Camry by hand. Used clay bar first til smooth. Tried applying M105 by hand with microfiber pad, working in small area, approx. 2ft square at a time. The 105 was difficult to remove and didn't leave a clean looking surface. After I went over it with a Turtle wax polish that I had, the finish looked pretty good. Still some cloudiness but surface looks uniform and has good shine, and very smooth. Is there something that I should be doing differently with the M105 to get better results?

Sounds like you are doing everything correctly. Working on very small areas is key. Also moisten your cloth applicator pad before applying product
Working with 105 (or any compound) by hand is an extremely difficult task.
