Default Best black car wax/ swirl remover?

I have a Black 2014 911, I kept it under a cover during the winter, well the cover blew up one day and swirled the paint. It's not bad but it bothers me. Anyone know of any waxes I can use to hide these swirls? I am going to an event next week and I don't have time for a full paint correction. I would like a product I can apply with my hands ( I know it won't remove all of it). Any help?

So much information on YouTube for this topic. Here is one from Meguiar's, but there are many other good products.

Also, don't forget the Car Care forum - https://rennlist.com/forums/concours-and-car-care-86/

If it’s light and only in a few spots just get a quick detail from a professional. By hand is tough. I wouldn’t think you need a whole correction unless it’s really bad. Anyway good luck.

Flex DA works very well.
Clay the car first.

Try posting in the “Concours & Car Care” forum. You’ll likely get lots more responses.

3M used to make a good product called "Finesse Glaze". Light, applied by hand and removes all the swirls.

What cover do you use? Do you store the car outside?

Meant to add this to an earlier comment.

If I need to fix a small surface scratch, hazing, isolated swirls, or blemishes etc., I use this kit and swear by it. Sonax makes great products.

Suncoast, Worst money I've ever spent. All it does is blow. I've strapped it down the way they say too.

I use s100 (same as p21s) wax and it does a nice job filling in light swirls on black. Most any good carnuba will do the same.
