Thank you all! I appreciate it very much.
Looks like I will absolutely have to ceramic coat this car. I washed it once since finishing and noticed some faint marring on the hood and in a few places. Nothing insane, but it will drive me berserk. I did order some new car wash mitts from...
I figured I would attach a few more Pictures. I am blown away with the ease of the Menzerna SF-3500. It does dust but way less than M101 from what I remember.
I added the blackhole over my swirl free finish and it added a deeper gloss and filled in any very minor imperfections I could only...
It's amazing the difference a polish can make. I tested a section after it was fully corrected with black hole. That is pretty impressive stuff. Just adds a deeper gloss to the black.
These pics are without black hole. Just polished paint and oils removed using CarPro Eraser.
I really want...
Menzerna 3500 on black pad, speed 5 on my new griot's G9. Wow this is effortless!!!
Research pays off. This is coming out so good.
M210 was ok but still a bit marring.
That is an interesting technique. Another forum member sent a similar video the other day.
If it comes to that for this car, I'll just stay up with black hole haha. Not worth it to me.
Hoping menzerna Sf3500 or Meg's m210 does the trick.
I am looking forward to trying the M210. Not having dealt with soft paint like this before, I just haven't had those kinds of products in hand.
None if my buddies have come across this so they had no idea what to recommend. Guidance was more of if I was in error or the car. It really seems that...
I wish I was just being picky. The swirls look awful under the right light. When I pulled it outside last weekend, it was hologramed. I was so stunned be used the paint looks so nice otherwise. But when you really look, it's marred. Talk about a punch in the gut lol.
Like you say, pictures...

I appreciate all of these helpful replies everyone!
I have been experimenting a bit and seem to get it as close as you can see in these pictures.
The wiped down was definitely causing issues and I will have to verify my towels to see what blend they are.
The plan WAS to ceramic coat, so I...

Thank you for the thoughts guys.
The towels are from reputable companies - it seems Ultimate Polish gets me as close as you can see, but no better.
In regards to ceramic coating - that was my intention. But there's no way in hell I'm locking in paint like this unless it's perfect.
The...
I am aware of that, I just figure since I wax clay my vehicles every 6-8 months with Collinite 845, the black hole will likely be protected underneath for awhile. It's just to give me some sanity back and get this thing out of my garage and driving.
I have read good things on Griots Perfecting...
At this point I'm beyond frustrated and need a break. I ordered Poorboy's black Hole. 3 weeks full of this all weekend. I'm just beyond burnt out.
The paint looks phenomenal under my shop lighting and LED phone light. The halogen shop light reveals the scratches under the right angle. You...
Scott thank you for your thoughts on this. I am thinking you may be right.
I tried two smaller areas with Ultimate Polish and my failing meguiars on 4 black" foam pads on max speed pushing down, and even though it obviously isn't working correctly, man did those light swirls go away quite a...
