the wood grain in my car has tons of swirl marks, and really fine scratchs. has anyone tried to refinish them, or happen to get the swirl marks out

depending on the thickness of the clear on your panels you might be able to wet sand it and have it re buffed i bet most paint shops can tell you if its possible but it might cheaper to buy a new panel

i have re-finished mine. i tried to buff them out, but to no gain.
so i just re cleared mine. i used a clear lacquer spary. from home depot about $5 bucks. sparayed it let it dry about a day cause it needs to harden. wet sanded with 1500 grit and polished and it looks great. ;)

Search for a thread called "custom blue CF dash" there might be some helpful info in there. You can do water transfer printing in any color under the sun.

you could try Novus 1.2.3, it's a 3 step polishing for acrylic, used a lot on aquariums. That would probalby get all the little swirls out
