    first start out with mothers clay bar then you can rewax with a buffer given the perfect temperature one body panel at a time and out of the sun mother clay bar removes swirls imperfections and dirt you cant get out with a car wash it shines the hell out of the vehicle the body guy up there is used to screwing people for money he is just so accustomed to it he wants you to sit in the driveway for five damn days just use the stuff i told you about

    Hello. Having 8 years of professional detailing experience I can help you with this. FIRST is once you swirl or scratch a car finish you have done so on a permanent basis unless you repaint.

    What you need to do is fill in the scraches/swirls. Buffing out with a NON abrasive glaze is best, however if you had the proper knowledge to this, at this point then you would never had swirled/scratched it in the first place. Just because someone says they are a professional buffer is not a guarantee they know what they are doing either, many detail shops have buffers who ruin finishes also. You can see the swirls best under a street light at night so do your final inspection under one. I have a few tips that you may be able to pull off, first make sure you are using a premium glaze (from auto parts store) Use a major name such as Mequires glaze and rub out by hand. Use circular motions and if needed you may add corn starch to the glaze as additional filler. Then use a quality wax as your final finish. If this fails to help then you will need to find a detailer who really does know his stuff.

    Remember the street light
