For the benefit of others wondering about polishes and stickers, here's the reply I sent...
---
I actually use Blackfire Gloss Enhancing Polish all the time to polish fine swirls out of vinyl stickers, so it won't do any harm, and is a good choice. On hard Subaru paint though, it tends to fill/hide as much as remove fine swirls, so isn't a fully permanent solution (you'd need to apply the polish 2-3 times a year to keep the paint looking swirl free, and each time then either seal it or wax with other Blackfire products it to lock in the fillers). However, using a coarse abrasive polish to permanently correct the paint isn't easy, unless you are prepared to tape off all of the stickered areas first using blue masking tape? If so, then Menzerna Intensive Polish applied using the white side of a German Pad is the best bet.
