<< ok, here is an old one. it's about waxes. the paint job on my car is not
in the best of shape. well, actually, it is quite oxidized. the other
day, i tried using a fine rubbing compound on it (blue coral) to lift off
the oxidation. that seemed to smooth it out pretty nice. then i tried
some of this dupli-color wax. you know, that stuff that is pigmented to
match the color of your car. it look good after i buffed that off. but
today i went out there and took a closer look at it, and there are faint
swirl marks in the finish. does anyone know what i need to do to avoid
that in the future? is it my method, the rubbing compound or wax, or is
my paint just beyond all hope. probably all three.

Glen,
Meguilar's has a good line of products for polishing. One of them is Mirror
Glaze Swirl Remover. Try your Western Auto or similar store.
