Swirls are self induced from washing and drying. The detailer could have removed them and they were reintroduced through improper wash and drying techniques.

That should be fine although you may want to get something a little more plush for the wash portion - say in the 450-530 range. The 600s for drying will work fine.

As long as the car has a coat of wax or sealant on it this works awesome. As well, the slower you move across the surface with the hose, the better the water will come off in sheets.

Heating it a bit first may enable it to just peel off. If not, use the razor blade and clean up the residue with an adhesive remover like goo gone.
