I used SRP on mine and as a beginner working by hand i found it to be a good product but i don't care much for the smell of it :sick:

What would you advise to get rid of swirl marks on an MK5 golf red? and also make it have a deep polish look to it?

By hand or by machine? You could be struggling to remove swirls by hand to be honest due to how hard the VW paint is or it would take a looooooong time. You could go down the route of using a good glaze which is choc full of 'fillers' and magic although ideally you need a machine and a polish.
For me, Prima Amigo has been good by hand and I have seen fairly good results if you really work it and do multiple coats. Autoglym SRP (Super resin polish) seems to get good reviews for covering swirl marks too.
Theres plenty of Pro's on here that can help but have a look on Detailing World too. There will probably be a fair few threads asking the same question that will be worth reading.
