    Katou, I'd recommend using the softer buff (that should end your
    problem with lines being left from the hard buff) with nothing more
    than White Diamond compound. On brass, it gives a wonderful shine
    that doesn't need rouge finishing, in my opinion. 

    If you have black lines and dots coming off on your piece, it may
    mean you need to add more compound to the buff, or it can mean that
    the buff needs raking. 

All the best,
Judy Bjorkman
