Well the paint shop should have told you not to wax the car with fresh paint for 90 days. By waxing it right after you paint it, the wax traps all the solvents in and can cause paint problems or not allowing it to fully cure. But you could use some 3M Hand Glaze that will be great for what you're wanting to do. That's what our shop uses with great results....however you will probably have to reglaze it after you wash it.

when you polish it... wipe it off in strait lines and softly, you need to wipe it a couple times for the polish to come off. then glaze it and take it off the same way. !!!NO WAX!!! i use mothers it works awesome, take it off like i told you and the paint should stay swirles.
