For black, wax after every wash. In addition, use a REAL sheep's skin wash mit. Wal-mart has them (you can feel the leather inside) for around $5.00. I've found that car wash is pretty much car wash. Wax and products afterwards are a WHOLE different story...

Errr...back to the paint. IF on the surface, those finger prints can be removed with a clay bar. Be sure to keep it lubricated. IF etched into the clear, you'll have to do some fighting there. It would be hard to prove that the dealership was trying to "hide" the marks. Especially since you have to prove that it didn't happen at the supermarket. The BEST I see them doing is reclearing that door or side. With how little clear is on the vehicle, I'm 90% sure that they'll sand through and end up having to repaint it. Sorry...just don't trust dealership "collision" centers.

There should be a REAL good detail person in the area. We use 3M 06060 to buff cars after paint, so you could try it. The porter cable won't work for what you're needing to get done. You're going to need a high speed buffer, or actually, I'd recommend you pay a pro to do it and not risk burning through the clear.

If you do end up going to a pro detailer, they don't HAVE to use 3M or Meguiar's or whatever. They know their products, the combinations, and the steps that they need to be successful. Just make sure they have proven they know what they're doing by providing CLOSE UP photos past projects.

Good luck.
