I use the Meguires 3 step system on both my cars....Its alot of work because you have to go over your car 3 times but the end result is amazing especially on black cars. Literally a mirror finish. Depending on how bad the scratches and swirls are on uour car you may need to do some machine buffing to get them out.

Good luck!!

try Meguires swirl remover 2.0 followed by a coat of wax. That should get rid of the sun swirls. If the scraches aren't too deep use Meguires scratch x or some type of rubbing compound and the some wax.
