On soft metals like aluminium small scratches will be visible even highly polished surfaces.
One reason for these small scratches is because all the buffing and polishing takes place in the same direction. If you can change the direction say by 90 deg. instead of going up and down the length in the same direction it will help.
You will need to change direction after each pass. Can be tedious.
The other thing Dave, we can be or get too critical of our own work. If one looks hard enough - nothing is perfect.
By the way metal polishes should always done in little circles - no one yet has come up with a better method
