you need a swirl remover and porter cable. not a buffer. only a real PC will spin fast enough, with the right pad (white), with a quality swirl remover. tropicare swirl remover is what i use. 3M finesse-it is also very good.

A cleaner wax is very unlikely to remove any swirls. You need a quality abrasive polish / swirl remover. And yes, you're also going to be very limited with a parts-store type buffer if that's what you're using.
