I bought a 2009 Super Black SV Sport last week. It's great, but my car has TONS of swirls! It's awful. It's so bad in spots that I was concerned it might have been painted, but I was assured by two trusted people that it was just a bad detail job. It came to me that way though, nothing I did. I need to take it to a pro and have them fix it because I don't have any of the proper tools to deal with something like this. What should I tell them I need when I call? Any special requests I should make besides "Fix the swirls!"? Thanks!

If you take it to a detail shop, tell them it didn't get detailed properly and you need the swirls removed. Sounds like someone hit it with a wool buffing pad to buff out scratches and didn't follow up with a foam pad, which removes the finer swirls that the wool pad leaves behind.
