Looks like it happened when the painter wheeled it out with rubbing compound, in direct sunlight there`s a haze of lines that distort the reflection of the paint, can this be corrected with a hand product?

I really don`t do a lot of defect removal by hand (other than an occasional bout with ScratchX (http://www.meguiars.com/?auto-paint-cleaners/ScratchX) ), but the 1Z (einszett) (http://www.1z-usa.com/sys-tmpl/homepage/) line of polishes get a lot of talk when correcting paint defects by hand comes up.



Below are some links to a few threads that might help you out (do a search on "hand" for more threads on this subject):

Without some pictures it is hard to tell how severe a problem you`re dealing with. If this is a fresh repaint be careful because the new paint will be a bit softer for a while, so start out with a polish on the mild side and then step up from there if needed.
