Is there anything out there on the market right now that can remove swirl marks on paint? My X5 is full of swirl marks!

Depending on how sever the swirls are, you're going to need to have the car machine polished either with a DA or a high-speed. Most products on the market aren't designed to remove swirls by hand. To truely eliminate swirls, you're going to have to use a prodcut that "cuts" the clear. That's best left to a professional detailer. Post a picture of your situation.

for best shine on dark cars. Pinnacle Souveran Wax by far in my oppinion!

I use this wax to top off my full Menzerna Treatment on clay bar, polish, glaze, FMJ and then Pinnacle Souveran!

Damn! That car cleans up good!

I like the Pinnacle Souveran wax as well. I have not tried to water
buff it. I'll have to try it for EuroFest.

I'd have to agree. However, dont forget the steps prior to the glaze. The majority of how your paint looks is in prepping for the final steps.

the ultimate shine

to remove all scratches and imperfections in the paint.

Takes a quality buff or polish job and then a couple coats of Menzerna FMJ.

we swear by Menzerna.

The proof is in the pudding:
