Barry Meguiar says swirl marks, which are nothing more than scratches in the surface of a vehicle, can only be removed by getting to the bottom of it -- literally.
Today's modern paint finish actually magnifies the scratches, making swirl marks one of the more troubling aspects of maintaining a vehicle's finish. "We get more calls about swirl marks than anything else," says Meguiar.
Getting rid of them will depend on how deep the scratch is, with
micro-fine, hairline scratches taken care of with a non-abrasive paint
cleaner; moderate ones may require something a little more serious; even
deeper swirl marks (caused by improper use of rotary buffers and
rubbing compounds) may need professional color sanding and buffing.
