I have them too.

Try the Meguairs 3 step cleaner/polish and wax. Goes a long way to helping disguise them.

Don't use a sponge when you clean the car, use a lambswool or microfibre mit instead. Sponges are one of the main culprits for light circular scratches, them and car washes.

Yep - wash with a mitt first, hose off, then dry off with a watermagnet or water blade thinggy. Then apply the megs products in 3 stages with an applicator sponge and remove with a good soft microfibre.

Its the car washes that are the killer - I think my dealer valeted mine using one and hence my swirls! That and its NHB and shows up everything!

the mobile car valet used a sponge to wash my car i would have though they will use lambswool or microfibre mit. the guy said waxing can get rid of the light scratches and swerves dont work.

what colour is it? black is the worst u will never get fully rid , it all depends how u wash. their are many grades of cutting creams to use all depends on how deep the swirls are when useing always use micro fiber cloth with hand not tcut . but ** friend said it will need polish out unless u know how to use machine i dont recomened u need to go threw different grade heads and polishes most vallets will never do this as i takes a lot of time and skill and pricy

used one of those jet washes on my black megane before i went to the civic and managed to blast some paint off. Then used the big brush and managed to put millions of little scratches all over the car, nightmare!
I use the meguiars stuff with the wash mitt and its ace. Did the whole lot yesterday and the car is gleaming!
