Default Deep Sea Mica (Swirl Marks)

Anyone know of a good detailer that can remove light swirl marks. I live in rosemead cal.
The car is about two months old. I like the color and yes I known all the tricks of keeping
it clean. Always willing to try new things.

You might want to post this over on the Detailing forum. There is a lot of good information on removing swirls over there. Good luck.

Get yourself a Makita Rotary Buffer, some Meguiar's 105 and 205, and a cutting pad, polishing, and finishing pad. Revitalized the paint on my Lexus and it has much better reflectivity now. I added a coat of Zaino Z2 polish as well.

I tried the Porter Cable Random Orbital first. Because of the way it moves it shakes in an unbalanced way. Returned it to Amazon and spent the extra 60 bucks for the Makita Rotary. The Makita is much smoother and easier to use.
