cf21... I've got nbp also... sob really does take off swirls here and there... but the overspray was the major thing it removed... it came off like crumps on a plate
Thier paste wax has been around for years. It came out and tried to gibe Turtle Wax a run for thier money and didn't make it.
I doubt it will remove swirling but will more fill it. Its tought to remobe swirling sometimes even with a buffer never mind by hand.
A lot of DIY paint can be lifted by the cleaners in some of the OTC waxes.
Here is your first clue on the product.. "Contains #1 grade Brazilian Carnauba Wax - the world's hardest natural wax - that shines up to 12 months". Its a pretty broad statement .. the higher the carnuba content usually the shorter the life. and shine doesn't mean protection.
". Chewing gum contains Carauba wax too.

For what it's worth, I personally like "Scratch Out" by Kit MUCH better than Meguiars Scratch X. I've had good success with "Scratch Out." In fact, I just recently purchased another bottle of it. I would recommend giving this stuff a shot. It does pretty good with removing swirls (minor), surface scratches, and it works great on oxidized plastic parts.

If its just hding the surace ones its pretty well a waste of time because the fillers aren't permanent and a couple washes and they are gone .
You also might want to change your washing/drying protocol to eliminate or reduce what caused the marring.
WalMart up here might not have it .. the Can.US stores don't carry identical lines .
