So i debaged my truck when i got it and i noticed when moisture or humidity is in the air i can see were it was perfectly. Thinking a paint correction would get rid of it completly. Any one have this issue and my truck is black.

Yea you need to hit it with some light-medium rubbing compound and and cleaner wax to even the area out. There is a full write up on the forums somewhere. Use the search function and it will answer a lot of questions.

What I recommend to anyone new to swirl removal, go to junkyard and buy a door or fender and practice with your compounds and detailing products

ALWAYS try the least abrasive solution first. I'd try a good polish before using any kind of compound.

So 120grit wouldn't be a good option?:crazy:

OP: Take to a reputable detail shop and have your truck polished out, I had the same issue and after a good detail it was all good.

I would try a non abrasive clay bar first before using anything with any grit.
