If you post a picture I can be of more help.

If it's typical swirling from washing the car then there are a number of different ways to approach the "fix."

I've not had experience with either of the above products, but I know there are a few products out there that will work by hand... I'm guessing the above mentioned products will too.

Some products will "fill" the swirl and they work pretty well, but you will see the swirls reappear magically after a month or so.

If you go with an actual correction that removes the swirls make sure you find out what caused them in the first place... (i.e. improper washing technique) otherwise you'll put a lot of work into something that will just happen again.

meguiars ultimate compound works great for me. I use an random orbital polisher. seems to get out most "normal" swirls and light scratches that you get from daily driving.

Moved to the car care section. Lots of threads already covering several different products and techniques. It all depends on how bad the swirl marks are and once you polish them out you need to pay attention on how you wash the car or the swirls will be back right after you wash/dry it. I've used various products over the years (3M, Zaino, Pinnacle, Meguiars, Mothers, etc). I am very happy with Pinnacle Advanced Swirl remover and Pinnacle Finishing polish. It also depends if you are going to be using a machine or attempting to do it by hand.
