97 2.2 with decent paint

I have a 97 2.2 cl with imica (?) red paint. The paint is pretty swirled and has light scratches. I unfortunately live in downtown atlanta and have no garage. I wash and wax often but still cant get rid of swirls and scratches. Will Zaino help or harm? what else could I use? Recommendations thankfully accepted.

Try 3M Swirl Mark Remover (SMR) or Meguiars Scratch X to remove those swirlies.

You're best bet is to have someone with an orbital polisher do it for you. You'll get ok results by hand, but these products, especially SMR work extremely well with an orbital.

I would also stick with a carnauba, like Meguiars. SMR has some good swirl filling properties and with a carnauba you don't have to remove the SMR to apply.
