I have a great number of minor swirlies covering the entire body of my `white 94 Regal though one area (passenger door) its extremely bad. Nothing I did, as it was like that from the previous owner before I was an autopian.
I`m looking for the best swirl remover product for use via hand. Here is the product that I was considering, Meguiars` #1 Medium-Cut Cleaner:

All of them or just one (1) of them?
I also heard someone mention the first one you listed wasn`t ideal for use via hand.

I use all of them, but you probably don`t need the fine cut compound.
The SMR does work by hand, it`s just hard to remove bad swirls with it when using it buy hand. FI2 works well when used by hand, just polish in back and forth motions[bumper to bumper] keep rubbing until it`s just about dry, than remove. This is when i use the SMR it removes the haze that FI2 can caus. apply it in the same way as FI2.
Use the SMR first, if it doesn`t do the job use FI2.

This week-end we had an exeptionaly 60°F, so I decided to start removing some scratches and swirls.
My arm is still soar.
I don`t get it:we use the softest stuff to wash,dry,buff,...
And still we have swirls.
And to get rid of them is such a hard chore.I don`t get it...
I must confess I used Turtle stuff for the job (my order of Magiuars is on the move...) ,and maybe I`m a bit to gentle, afraid of making things worse as they are.
