personally for taking out swirls and scratches i dont think any meguiars product does the job. i use their products for detailing but i only use 3m products for buffing. if your interested in my writeup shoot me a pm and ill help ya out.

Depending on the color of the car I would leave it to the pros. Theres a lot of different variables when buffing. How agressive is the compound? Orbital or rotary? The speed your buffing at plays a major role. You should use a decent wax. Meguiars #26 will do a good job on pretty much any color, as well as give respectable (but not great) durability.
