Really it all depends on what light is. Most "light" swirls and marring can be removed by hand with the proper products but a PC will definetely make it easier / faster. A PC with a few of the meguiars foam pads can be an invaluable tool. As for products I personally like Poorboy's SSR1,2,3 and ProPolish, all are easy on / off and give great results. Hope this helps
