You own a black car. I highly recomend you get a done by someone that knows what they are doing. Black is the hardest color to learn on and you could make your car look even worse then it does now if you do it.

yah it has alot of swirls cuz it was a lease before i got it. They must have ran it through a carwash once a week. I had the front repainted because it was in such bad condition (lots and lots of rock chips). I was just hoping to get out some of the swirls. Do you know how much it would cost to go to a detail shop?

The swirls you probley can get out with a real nice wax and good buff job. But talk to some friends or ppl with nice cars and ask them where they take theirs and who does good work. Then call around and find out how much things go for in you area.
