There are two main ways to avoid swirling in black paint. Have a metallic or pearl in it, or have additional coats of clearcoat. A black Mercedes is less likely to gather scratches and swirls than your average GM or Ford product because they put extra clear on the car.

You can remove swirling from black cars with a lot of buffing, but you can't use the cheap sponge or fake lambskin buffing pads and expect a good job.
