I have gotten this from no less than a dozen custom paint artists, they all say it so gotta be something to it.

Yup it does. The first thing I did when I got my new camaro was start to dust it with a california duster in my garage. The car never really got dirty and I didn't drive it at that time because it was winter. More and more fine little scratches started to appear until I figured it out. I still have those little scratches.

Put a pair of sunglasses on and look at your paint. I use polarized sunglasses. Look at the suns reflection on your paint and walk around the car looking at the suns reflection. You will see the scratches we are talking about. If you have a silver or a white car they will be hard to see, but will still be there. Look around at other peoples cars and you will see all the swirl marks from improper washing and waxing. I know it's impossible to stop the swirl marks, but you can slow them down by taking precautions.
