Swirls all over car

Alright so i had my Black G detailed but the guy who did it used the wrong cloth or some thing because there are these black swirls all over the whole car ... It looks horrible at night with lights on it i think they are very small scratches or some thing i have no idea but they are in a circular motion , Maybe from a buffer?

How can i fix this?!?!

Please help

I say you demand your money back. If I pay someone to detail my ride, I expect the paint to look immaculate.

Zaino just covers the swirls, scratches. Any Decent wax will do it too.

If you want to correct the swirls, now thats a bit more work to do

It would be nice to see the pix of how bad it is. But think you need to do a full detail on your car.

I'm guessing the 'pro' went over with a rotary and left tons of buffer trails/holos.

The cheapest way is to get a filler glaze/wax and cover it up. Not the best since it'll show up again once it wears.
You can also DIY with a DA polisher and some polish and correct the damage.

If you have money, you can go to a professional and he will take care of the swirls.

Better to just use that money towards a Porter Cable 7424xp buffer, some Menzerna polishes/sealant and learn to detail your car yourself.

This is correct if you dont have the paint corrected the paint will never look right. Post some pics but it does sound like you should get your money back from that "detailer"

omg the dealership, lol you need to make sure they know by telling them to put a no contact or no touch order on your car anytime you are at that profiteering, unscrupulous place. $500 for what taxes, man that sucks?

please post some pics
