Is your car black too Blink? I have the same exact issues on my car...

Yup, it's black - best and worst decision I've ever made, lol.

Removing all marring from the paint can be a long process and can only be done if the paint is thick enough. The paint on our Z's is roughly 5 mill's thick. The most you can remove is .5 of a mill. This will leave enough clear coat as not to induce premature clear coat failure. Most marring from washing and daily use is not that deep, so it is relatively easy to remove. Usually only a fraction of clear is removed. As mentioned earlier if you can feel it with your finger nail then it is to deep to remove. When you gave your car to the detailer did you discuss what you wanted done, like all marring removed or just a single stage polish that will make it look better but not remove all the swirls etc? I always have this discussion with my customers so there is no misunderstanding. If all the marring was to be removed, then you need to contact the detailer about your concerns.

I do recall the detailer saying that the paint on the hood was a good deal thinner than the rest of the car. I think the hood was about 65 micrometers or so compared to the rest of the car being around 90-100.
