Re: still have swirls

Did you use a buffer?

If you did it by hand, did you go in circles or, back and forth in straight lines?

How hard did you rub if done by hand?

What kind of applicator pad and buffing pad did you use?

Re: still have swirls

Hmm...I don't know what to tell you. You might have to look for something more abrasive. Before you do anything, try calling a detail shop and see what they say, or have them look at it first. Good luck.

OH, I thought you got them out, your pictures looked great. It looked like they came out in the pics.

Sorry, I forgot. Try using the cleaner wax again. Then just buff it out really good.

Re: still have swirls

What products are you using?

I personally have had no luck with removing swirls by hand. With the black car I paid for a polisher and use Meguiars scratch remover 2.0 and it gets the swirls out pretty damn well.

Autopia.org has some good tech articles on getting anything out of the paint.

Good luck.
