You have to order it but I use a product from The Wax Shop. It is online and I got hooked on it when I bought a black vehicle in 1993. They used to sell it at Auto Zone but I can only find it online. It completely takes out swirl marks and is a wipe on and wipe off. Unbelievable product and I also use their spray detailer after I wash it and in between waxes to take off water spots. It is called Slick Stuff and I buy it by the case. I believe in it.

I use Zymbol Caranuba Wax and Turtle 2001 Polish Wax when I am hand washing during the summer. Use polish once a year to clean the paint and then follow it up with the Zymbol Caranuba Wax. Then apply Zymbol Ever other month till temps make it hard to apply the wax with out freezing.
Trough the winter I use the local car washes' "Clear Coat Protectant."

Anything made by CarBrite or Malco. Both are in the $10/bottle range, but both are great products. The Malco seems to weather better, but it's hard to beat the CarBrite butter wax shine.

Can't go wrong with Meguires. They make all kinds of good products. Gold Class, NXT, Scratch X, the list goes on....

I use Meguiar's Gold Class paste wax. We just did both our trucks yesterday and we do them twice a year. It holds up great. I even wax the 5th wheel and our 67 Chevelle with it twice a year.
