As all of you guys with the darker colors know, the swirl marks can be a real pain in the butt. I have tried numerous products to try and get rid of the swirls. I was in Autozone and saw Meguiar's SwirlX. I thought "what the hell?" Well I put a coat on tonight, it seems like it worked very well. I haven't gotten it out into the sun yet, as that is the true test, but at different angles under the lights in my garage it seems to have done its job. I will post an update when I can get the bike in the sun. It is supposed to rain tomorrow.....
I've tried really, really hard to not wash or dry my bike with anything that will leave swirl marks. I wash it gently with a microfiber wash brush and air dry it with the leaf blower and then touch up with a microfiber towel.
My dark peace officer blue gets them. I'vew found that 3M swirl remover, a good coat of wax, and some spay on meguiers nano wax does well to diminish them.
3M Hand Glaze...... you have to buy it at an automotive supply store that handles paint products. Easy on easy off. Makes paint noticeably darker and deep.
