without a machine i found that the 'Clearkote' range does wonders.

then get a SOFT dodo wax for silvery/grey/light cars sample pots are cheap and go pretty far

top-off with Zaino grand finale

Neither of them are polishes and won't remove swirls though...

OP, menzerna is your friend, PF2500 for swirll removal, and SF4000 for finishing - with a soft german applicatorl, assuming you're polishing by hand that is.
