Anyone got some advice to get rid of swirls? Besides repainting the car?

depends how bad they are and how deep. you might try a clay bar kit and see if that helps any followed by a swirl remover then a three stage polish and wax. mcguiers (spelling) has some great products for the paint!

Yeah, I don't know how deep they are. You can only really see them when the sun is glaring off it. Certain angles it's worse.
But there's alot! They are like all over the car!
I got the Ice clay bar like thing. I was gonna try this out in a small area and see what happens, but when I looked it up online the responses were crazy, People hate it! I said I can't use this.
I saw that MagaLiqour whatever you call it in the store next to the Ice I should of spent the extra 5 bucks!
I think I'll just gonna get a real clay bar from like the 3m catalog and go that way. I never used anything like this so I'll return and let you know how it goes.
You always have to wax it after the use of a clay bar?

IMHO meguiars is the way to go. I've always used their stuff even on the semi's I used to detail. and yes you should wax after using the clay bar some kits even include a wax with the clay and spray.
