    Try 3M Imperial Hand Glaze. I have good results with it.

    You shouldn't have gotten swirls in the first place. What type of applicator and what mix of products got you your swirls that you are now wanting to remove??

    3M finish-it SMR
    Einszett Paint Polish
    Menzerna Intensive Polish
    Menzerna Final Polish II.

    3M hand glaze probabaly won't have enough cutting action to remove bad swirls. It might work well enough for minor swirling.

    Follow up the polish with a good synthetic or carnauba wax.

    Also, I HIGHLY recommend investing in a random orbital polisher such as the Porter Cable. It is SO MUCH easier and better than hand polishing. I totally fell for the Zymol better by hand high priced wax scheme. But, ever since getting a PC orbital polisher and good, but reasonably priced, synthetic waxes, I have been blown away by the results even on black cars. Carnauba may look nice, but the synthetics last so much longer and have a wet but not plasticky look now. Good carnauba waxes like P21S still have a glow to them, but the synthetics like Menzerna FMJ, Einszett Glanz and Klasse are all superb now. Good luck.
