Just got my car back from a detail

Just looking at my car in a weird angle of sun light i noticed what seem like swirl marks but they look almost like there behind the paint or in the paint. I remember reading a thread about them somewhere.

I'm pretty sure they were put there by some time of buffer.

Any info would be much appreciated. How to remove them or if they can be removed. I want to buy a flex and learn how to use it anyway so if it can be fixed I'll just end up buying a flex.

Thank guys.

yes you should be able to fix them with Menzerna PO85RD and a nice finishing pad.

That's it I'll get a pic up as soon as I get the lighting again. So get a flex and I should be good.

Sounds like to detailer left you with holograms. A PC is plenty and a Flex is well worth the money.

Detailed image has free shipping and additional discount right now.
