is there a wax that does not "ghost" on a black car?

seems everything i have tried over the years leaves faint black swirls when buffed off. the car looks really nice from most angles, but when you get it just right, you can see the paint has darker swirls where the wax was applied. i've tried buffing harder, waiting longer/shorter to buff after application of the wax, using quick detailer afterwards and even only waxing when i can follow one of the mothers or meguires 3 step processes. the 3 step seems to work the best and minimize the swirling, but it's still there.
this happens on both my 90 900 and my 06 9-3 aero. so i don't think it is a paint/clear coat/etc issue. it could be a user issue as well, so i am open to any suggestions.
i am ok with putting in the time to do it right, but want it to turn out great. there is nothing more frustrating after a hard day of detailing than to see those swirls...
any thoughts?
thanks for the help.
