Had some good weather today...

got good weather today here in NJ so decided to take advantage of it.
so i did this
-Gold Class wash
-Dry
-DC Step 1 Paint Cleaner
-DC step 2 Polish
-NXT 2.0 Paste Wax

I know i know, i didnt clay bar it. but i have to say its the first time ive used any of the DC steps and the paintcleaner does take out alot of blemishes. i have some questions for you guys. my truck looks great during the day, but once parked under a street light at night it looks HORRIBLE, with soo many swirls/spider web marks on the entire thing, especially the hood, also what could be causing all of this, something i am doing? Being i do not own a DA or anything like that and i do everything by hand what would be best to do ? Is having a detailer come to my house my only good option?
here are some pics. this was before i spray paint the front wheel wells with black krylon fusion.

Also what is everyones opinion on removing the pinstriping and the words "Lariat" from the sides? its startin to all worn anyways





Not the best of pics, there was no sun today, but it was warm.

So any advice from above would be awsome. Thanks!
