Will this method minimize swirls/spider scratches?

Hi Folks! Great site which a lot of useful information.



I just purchased a used 2007 True Red MX5 Miata. The paint on the car looks great except on the hood. It appears there are some slight vertical and spider swirls/scratches on the hood. (see pic; looks like someone used a wash brush) It would be great if I don`t need to spend money for a Porter Cable (on a budget) and would prefer something inexpensive that could help hide these by hand.



Will the following paint plan help hide the scratches/swirls? If not any recommendations? I would use this plan if there weren`t any scratches but that kinda throws things off.



1. Wash with Meguires Gold Class Wash

2. Claybar with Mothers Claybar Kit

3. Wash Again with Meguires

4. Polish with Klasse All in One (by hand...hopefully this will help some of the scratches)

5. Multiple coats of Collinite 845 Wax (I hope it will help hide the scratches)



I`m in Canada so our selection is much less up here. (eshine & carcaresmart seem like good online Canadian stores) Thanks!
