Ya let me second that note! Any help would be greatly appriciated. I have been thinking to just go take it to a paint shop to do a professional cut and wax job?

3M swirl remover. I buy mine at an autobody paint store. A good body shop will tell you were to find the stores.

They'll never completely go away, but this stuff helps with a good carnuba. I use Blitz Wax afterwards. I've got all of my neighbors using the same thing if that says anything.

Both are super easy to put on. Apply with a cloth diaper.

Easy. Buy some paint cleaner to remove the old wax and polish. Some high quality machine polish will get them right out with ease, also some good hand polish might do it as well with some more effort. Then follow it up with some good wax and you'll have yourself a swirl-free shine.
