    If I may ask, which is "easier" to remove between swirl marks and cat scratches?

    For a covered garage, how do you prevent the cats from sleeping and playing on your car?

    swirls, from what i understand, are very shallow scratches involving the clear coat only. they may be remedied by buffing/polishing, for as long as the clear coat lasts.
    animal scratches, if they go thru the clear coat, might not be buff-able anymore.

    "we all have our schemes on how to prevent animals from playing with our cars."
    in our instance, we had a carpenter build us movable wood-or-metal-framed standing screens.
    but we are utterly helpless against bats and birds, when they bomb our cars with their... body metabolites. perhaps, a car cover...!! bwahahaha!!

    You could get one of these:



    Then your OCness will only have to worry about the touchless carwash.

    But I agree, from a practical standpoint trying to avoid swirlmarks is just about impossible if you use the car.

    A "mini garage" inside your garage... this should eliminate cat scratches. The next thing to do is the "touchless carwash".
