I'm a newbie to auto detailing and about to do a paint correction on my black Mustang.
I'm not sure how bad these Swirls are when I'm trying to describe them to someone. I guess I'm just wondering what the pros would classify this damage as? Do you guys use a number scale or something? I'm a paramedic so I'm thinking of like a 1-10 pain scale 10 being the worst...lol.

Those look pretty severe to me in terms of swirls. I would say you're most likely going to need a 2 step (maybe 3 depending on the products you are using) process to achieve the desired results.
I would consider something like the Meg's MF cutting pads and D300 compound followed by M205 on a white or black pad... however you should perform your own test spots to determine what will work best for your particular situation.

The process I'm planning on going with is:
Megs D300 (MF cutting pad)
Blackfire SRCP (White hexlogic pad)
Blackfire WD (Black hexlogic pad)
Blackfire MS (By hand)

Thanks Thor...you're the one who helped me come up with this plan. I just wanted to post pics of the damage to make sure.
BTW on a scale 1-10 how bad would you guys say this is?

I agree, it doesn't look like the clear coat has failed. So it can be fixed
Wool pad
3M compound
3m polish
Wash it
And wax it.
I wouldn't color sand it.
