if you dont want to shell out for a machine then the following consumer range could help fill them over for the time being:
meg's NXT
AG ultra deep shine
turtlewax nano polish / platinum series wax

autoglym super resion polish is your best best for light swirs as it contains filler that will help mask swirls

I normally use Meguires scratch-x then use the 3 step polishing system they have. I buff it off with a cheap woolworths machine polisher and it works a treat!!!

Personally I prefer Meguires range their resin polish is spot on but I can't say I've tried many other brands just steer clear of cheaper brands cos they don't work!!!!

if you want to step it up a gear try clearkote vanilla moose wax hand glaze, its neither a glaze or wax, but it is a polish with filler capabilities
found it much better than scratchx or srp
