How to revive paint shine
Hey Fellas - so I was itching for blue and decided to plastidip the car blue, it was harder than I thought so after a coat I decided to remove it and stick with original paint color (alpina white) - heres the bummer, I used fiber cloth and rubbed it all down ... now my paint has slight swirl marks (only visible in light reflection) .. I tried to clay it, tried wax, tried the shine reviver ... its gotten better but still doesnt look like a clean car ... Is there a product I can use that will restore the shine and revive paint ... appreciate the time you guys took to read through this -

You can look into klasse AIO and their glaze sealant i use the AIO for everything, and I mean EVERYTHINGGG

Are you doing this by hand or with a machine????? To effectively remove swirls or other minor defects requires abrasion. Machine polishing is much more efficient than the hand method. Unfortunately, there is no "Magic in a Bottle" that you can simply wipe on and wipe off.
