I've heard about the 3M Swirl Remover too and word is it is one great product.

Let us know what you finally decided to do.

I had some pretty bad scratches in the black paint on my new SC430 that the dealer put there trying to rub off some stuck glue from when the car was shipped to them. They tried buffing them out and it made side-side scratches into round swirls. I decided to read up and tried One Grand Omega Glaze followed by Blitz Wax and it looks PHENOMENAL! No more hazy scratches. As far was waxes I've also hear good stuff about S100 that you can find at local motorcycle shops. Good luck,
