glaze on black paint

i just got my TA repainted about 6 months ago. its a two stage job. i usually use mr clean cuz i hate taking a chamois to my clear coat, but lately i havent had time to wash it myself.

today after i got it back from being hand washed at the gas station i noticed really bad glazing in the paint. you know that kinda "spider web" or swirls. whatever you wanna call it. since it was a bull**** maaco paint job thats probably why the glazing is so bad, but whats the best way to take care of this?


i did a search and found meguiers NTX or whatever that was to be good, but im looking for a long term solution. can a body shop buff this out?

I have had the glazed look to my paint after one of those quicky car washes... I have noticed it came from their towels they used to "dry" it off some.. Happens the most when you run through and get the option with the wax, it's just like it smears the stuff all over when they wipe it down, And then under the blower stuff dries it on... A good cleaner wax I would think should fix that. And then if you really want you could wax it with some zaino or something. Make it look oh so sexy. I always wash mine by hand anymore though because of the swirls left by the auto washers and such.

Dpending on how much you wax it it can start to build up and you can get a slight haze to it as well. it actually dulls the color some. So that could be it as well.
