A simple correction of the paint, by yourself or a professional detailer, will cost a fraction of a new paint job. Paint correction is not rocket science, but the thing you need to learn first is how to prevent/minimize swirls b/c even if you do find a pro to handle it for you if your wash and care routine are not correct you're just going to swirl the paint up again.

As far as not finding a shop that would get rid of swirls... thats the first thing a detailer should be able to do or they're not detailers. Might need to look harder or do more research b/c it sounds like you contacted a bunch of hack jobs. Quote:

yea... a lot of people's idea of detailing a car is like... slopping some crap fake wax on it and some armor all on the tires. My idea of washing a car is more time consuming and yields a better result than what most people (who have no idea about cars) consider having their car 'detailed'
