maguires diamond cut compound and use a good buffer,then use maguires speed glaze and finally maguires yellow tech wax. trust me i use this in my garage and i woudnt go back to anthing else. it may cost more,but its well worth it when your car has a showroom finish!

how long will it last and does it clear uo swirls .................
the results look good and pictures make any car look good, but these is a reason 3M stuff cost more and bodyshops and deatilers use it
fair play though for what you've done.
