    Look at the Meg's pro line (Dual Actioin Cleaner Polish and Swirl Free Polish), Menzerna, 3M or Poorboy's World.

    Just be careful because some of these require the use of a Dual-Action polisher or oribtal for best results.

    Look in your yellow pages for your local automotive finish supplier (possible Finish Masters or Sherwin Williams), they should carry at least the Meg's and 3M if not some other brands too.

    I had a 99Si with more paint woes than a beater. I use 3M swirl remover and a super soft microfiber towel. Whenever I finished a panel, I'd switch to a new towel. It took about 10 towels to do the car but it was show ready and not one swirl mark. It just takes time, lots of patience, and some elbow grease. And don't expect to get them all the first time. Keep on it every two weeks and it'll get finished. And remember to keep a coat of paste wax on it so when you wash your car and then dry it, you only scratch the wax and not the paint. Wax can be put back on, paint has to be rubbed out.

    And prevention is better than fixing so I recommend buying some good towels. The best ones are from Bath&Body works. Wash them once before you use them on your car. Those are the softest and most absorbant towels I've used.

    don't use that stuff on a big portion of a car... its not good... go with the zaino stuff... or do the meguaires #7 show car glaze then lock it with a wax.
