Door trim removal Q

[94GTMOOSE]

I just removed the door trim on both doors. Took me a while, but i did manage to get all of the sticky crap off the paint. Then i buffed it out. looks good but i can still see an outline of where the edges of the trim(not double sided tape marks) were rubbing i guess on the door itself. It is an outline from end to end, and its on both sides. I was wondering if anyone else had this problem when they removed their door trim or is it just me. And if anyone had a souloution.

After many years of the sun not hitting the paint it's going to look brighter then the rest of the paint.

its not brighter at all, the car before it was mine was a garage kept car. around the edges looks like it lost its luster almost. like there is no more clear coat. i buffed and buffed till my arms were tired but nothing. i used turtle wax compound, then when that didn't work i switched to 3m rubbing compound.
