Default Waxing the Car

What is a good wax to get rid of swirl marks? I have it all over the 00 A4, I tried Turtle Wax Swirl remover, California Gold, also tried mothhers.. none of them remove the swirl mark, they do make it much more shiny though...

I don't have a buffer, should I get one?

None of those swirl removers work. Do a search and you will find some pretty good stuff. You should take a good full day and really get down to detailing it. I highly recommend using the clay bar. I was scared to use it and just did and it was amazing. I had swirls bad and you can see nothing now. The paint looks like it just came out of the factory.

Do it this weekend and then let me know how you liked it. Anyone you talk to that has used a clay bar will tell you it's amazing. It is time consuming but well worth it.
