Default Buffing out old lacquer paint

I am buffing out an older lacquer paint on my 67 LeMans. It's coming out OK but having trouble getting the sheen to improve. The paint is extremely oxidized but buffing out pretty good. Lots of black color coming out on the buiffing pads. I am using Meguiars mirror glaze number 7. But when I follow up with Maguiars number 3 it actually dulls the paint rather than bringing out more sheen. This has me baffled? Any suggestions? I'm using an orbital buffer.
