Message Hey Kong...

is it original paint? If so, wet sanding is probably out of the question if you've never done it before.

If it is a respray, it would probably stand a little wet sanding. You can buy 3m 3000 pads that will scuff the surface adequately, but take very little of the clear in the process. Then hit is with the step 2 3m grey, and follow that with the 3m finesse-it II blue on a foam pad and it will shine like a diamond free of swirl marks.

Both of those compounds are exceptionally easy to use, and as long as you keep the pad damp, they will not burn the paint or cause further swirling. Keep your buffer below 1800 RPM and you will be fine.
