You will get 42 answers based on the religion of car polish. So be prepared.
I own a very high end detail shop in Silicon Valley and Black cars are our specialty.
Can you/Do you have a buffer. If not I suggest a Porter Cable 7424XP. It is a very safe buffer and will not burn your paint.
Second get Rupes Yellow Pads
Then purchase Sonax 04-06 Polish
Or
Zaino ZPC
For your Corvette, Sonax is excellent for slightly heavier swirl marks/scratches. Zaino's ZPC is the absolute best for light scratches/swirl marks

Do you have a machine polisher?
Our Correcting Polish with our orange pad would more than likely will take care of them with one step.
Thanks for looking!

First of all you need a good Dual Action polisher. You can do more good in five minutes with a DA than you can in two hours by hand. There are many great polish products on the market to choose from. Visit the various detail product web sites and pick your products or you can call their tech people and they can recommend the best products for your application.

This is the best I've ever used....and I've tried most everyone out there. Watch this short video and see for yourself.....Sonax Perfect Finish.

That will depend on what product you use. I always use the speeds recommended on the product. After blotting the product on to the car they usually recommend spreading the product on speed setting one. After that they usually recommend bumping it up. At that point I would use the recommended speed on the product.

I used the SONAX 04-06 with Rupes pads per your suggestions. Worked better than I could have imagined. Now what sealant or pure polish would you suggest? Please bear in mind that longevity in sealant is not a concern as the car is garaged and never driven in rain, etc.Even in bad weather a wipe i down at least weekly.
In good weather I attend a lot of cruise ins and car shows during favorable wather here in Virginia and desire to keep the finish as bright and shiney as possible.
I really apprecate you advice and thanks to you in advance.
