Well, you'll want to change the product you are using, AIO isn't really meant for removing swirls. You need an abrasive polish, such as Meguiar's #80 or Optimum Polish. The pad should be a polishing, or light cutting pad.

I 2nd the advice given above. To remove swirls you would need a polish that contains abbrasives. AIO does not contain abbrasives so you would need a polish that does.

Try one of the PB's SSRs, OP/OPC, Megs #83/#80, etc.

Also, step down the pad. Yellow is a light cutting pad. You should be seeking a polishing pad, like Orange.........
