Help With Berlina Black
I've purchased a new 04 S2000. Best money I ever spent for a car.
I have one question. I just washed it with a sheepskin mit and dried with a a high end chamois...and low and behold I got these fine little "white" scratches in the clear coat....I think they are called swirls. I am not a detail expert but would like to learn the basics on keeping this jet black. Any tips on how to prevent this from happening?

FYI: you have to wax every time you wash or at least use detail spray to hide your swirls. Black == swirl marks. It's unavoidable. You can cover them and once or twice a year remove them with a machine.
