Yeah well, the swirl marks really only show up in direct sunlight. Shade is the best for pictures! But yeah damn, that hood looks absolutely flawless!!

If you have swirl marks then you didn't detail your car properly. You will need to polish the car to remove it.

grab yourself a PC7424. Problem solved.

Was just detailing my car for at least 10 -15 hours. All swirls and minor scratches all gone..
