Methods to remove swirl marks?
So I gave the S4 a nice wash today, and as I was drying the trunk lid I saw a very fine, light scratch on the top. There must have been a piece of debris in my microfiber drying cloth. So i reached for my 3M scratch remover and buffed out the scratch, but it left swirl marks! So then I attempted to use Nu-Finish wax to remove the swirl marks, thinking the 3M scratch remover is slightly abrasive. Unfortunately for me, it just made the swirl marks even bigger.
Not quite sure what to do. Is there any product or methods you guys have for removing swirl marks?

Zymol HD Cleanse followed by Zymol Carbon wax. Both hand applied.
I've used them for years on my cars - they take some time to apply, but the results are quite amazing.
See more at Zymol
edit:
oh, and if you think $50 is expensive for the carbon wax, check out their Royale Glaze - sure it's a full 44 oz, great that it's refilled for life. But $8,416 for a thing of wax? yikes.
