Thanks for the comments, there are defect areas in the finish, but on the whole it's looking good. If it was perfect, I'd know it didn't come from me.
I ended up wet sanding it with 1500 wet and dry sandpaper, then using a cutting compound, followed by Meguiar's Ultimate Compound.
The downside is that I was focused on the top, but now I've got to protect the top while I work on the back surface!
My braided wire arrived after I left for work this afternoon, as I'm working over the weekend I might get to finish the wiring maybe Thursday?
