NXT did a decent job on may car. I wasn't looking for anything rediculously complicated at the time. It filled in some very minor swirls and put on a nice shine.

Thats pretty its like a dark forrest green right? I like that color alot. Does it get dirty as fast as a black paint job does?

The trick with black cars is dont do small tight circles when polishing, do large diameter circles, and use cotton diapers to remove wax once its dry. PersonallyI like meguirers gold class. Also watch what youuse when washing it, drying also,use soft cloth or brush use back and forth motion. When drying use a good chammy, here also dont do circular motion carry water off in one direction.Try these steps and watch swirls go away infuture.

i used the meguires 3 step system on my black car w/ swirl marks before i sold it and it looked new again no swirls. you wash and dry your car, then apply the cleaner(step 1) then the polish(2) then the carnuba wax(3). it took me 2 days(about 4-5 hours to do my little mr2 spyder.

Wolfgang deep gloss sealant + Pinnacle Souveran wax. Well worth the cost.

Great product!
It will remove light swirls as well. You will need a polish with more "cut" if they are a little more stubborn.

Meguiars makes this stuff called "Diamond Cut". You can get it in different strengths. If you have a high speed buffer and know how to use it this will greatly reduce the swirl markes. You just have to be careful not to burn through the clear coat. Afterwards go over it again with a good wax and it should look like its right from the factory.

high speed buffers leave swirl marks, period.
