Will applying more BF Paint Protection hide swirls?

I have 3 layers of BF Paint Protection which I applied 7/8. It's a daily driver so swirl city. I know I could start over with the BF polish but will adding some more layers of paint protection hide swirls like say Z5.

I may either strip BF and SMR, then put Z on for the upcoming winter or start over BF. However, I do prefer the BF look over Z though.

Yes

Like Z5, BF protectant will fill very minor surface marring. My finish was prepped with Z2/Z5 until this marring was nearly gone. At this time I started the BF. It filled any remaining marring very, very well.
There is no substitution for SMR for anything deeper than a very minor surface imperfection. Since BF can be applied up to 3/day I would suggest selecting a panel and see if this will eliminate to your satisfaction these imperfections. If not move on to the BF polish first ( mild abrasive) If that does not work go to the SMR and re-apply Z and/or BF protectants.
