just minor defects. a good hand waxing or a buffing will correct the issue

Ok, so yes they are minor defects and as you have stated these appeared after you washed your car. This means that your current method of washing your car is going to leave your car hacked and covered in swirls within the next year. Something needs to change. I suggest you check out this thread. Hopefully that should be able to help you out.

Those defects are caused by either using a bad wash mitt or drying the vehicle with something that should never come 5 meters within your car's paint.

correct they are minor defects but hand waxing is not the solution to correct those. I explained the difference between waxing and polishing in your other thread.

To correct these defects I would recommend going to a professional detailer who is reputable and paying him to fix these defects. Since they are minor now the costs are not going to be as high.
