Possible?
Just started cleaning mine and already something is putting very fine swirls in the paint. 
Using mircofiber mitts/cloths etc, using two buckets for clean and dirty water so im a little lost to whats causing the swirls. any ideas? i believe its the microfiber cloths as it seems to happen during waxing  any tips are welcome there.
However, mums car (not been cleaned using polish/wax/gloss in years) has loads of swirls, any way to reduce them? would be helpful for both mothers car but also preventing them on mine. 
Cheers for any tips/thoughts/help

From fresh paint, tis flatted with 2000 grit then G3 Componded by machine, then applied anto swirl with polishing cloth then once applied, use machine to buff
if not fresh paint then js apply the swirl remover cream then buff up by machine
everyone does it differently, we wax [the vehicle] before applying anti swirl
