Without good sun shots it's hard to tell how it really looks. The pics look decent but again, without sun shots we really can't tell. Also, if the paint wasn't really bad before hand, 105 is pretty aggressive and rule of thumb is you want to start with the least aggressive method first and work your way up as needed. I would have tried 205 on a white pad and then maybe on a orange pad if needed. If that still didn't do it then I'd go to the 105.
