Question - exactly which "swirl remover" did you use? The Meguiar's mirror glaze, or something else?
I'm planning to use rottenstone (for the very first time ) on my Bozak cabinet tops and trim, and it sounds like the swirl remover may come in handy.
Ron,
I used the Meguiar's Swirl X Swirl Remover:

I applied it with a 3" polishing pad holder and an orange polishing pad. You can get the holder here:

But just a word of warning on pumice and rottenstone. I personally did not find it an enjoyable experience. It was very messy and hard to tell when the polishing was complete. If I were to do a gloss cabinet again I would probably just wet sand with increasing grits up to 2000 - 3000 then polish out with the Meguiar's. Maybe I was just doing it wrong. I don't know since it was my first time. Maybe you will have better luck.
Having said that I still might give pumice and rottenstone a try after applying several coats of semi-gloss on a radio.
Either way, good luck and be sure to post photos!
