Default Really bugging me

I have a few light swirl marks, and they bother the crap out of me since with a black car I can see every improfection.


All I want is to cover them up, and not see ANY SWIRLS AGAIN!

I have an orbital, but I was told that I was getting swirls because I buff and rub in small circles, and I need to go in a strait line with a black car...


Any suggestions?

My black King Ranch got swirls on it after trying my best not to get them. Try using Zymol in a straight line in a small area. I didnt have any till I bought that new Mothers wax. Zymol should fix your problem plus its a awesome polish. This is why I bought a white stang I can wash it with a brush and they dont show!!! Nothing looks better than black though.

The ICE Clay Bar claims to remove swirls. But I wouldn't know.

OT - but I'm curious...

Are your hood pins functional? If so, where are they mounted underneath? I've never seen them out that far and wondering where they are bolted to?

I don't care if they are or not. I actually like the placement and was asking cause I couldn't figure out where you mounted them to place them there...
