??? You're polishing the clearcoat. This has no colour. The question is are you goin to polish by hand or machine?
Horatio:
Have you tried poorboys black hole polish? Really good at masking swirls on dark colours. Would use a wax/sealent over the top though, wont last longer than a week i find. I can recommend autoglym super resin polish, good filler as well, as its easily purchased at halfrauds. Autoglym also do a polish specificly for darker colours, not tried it although ive got a bottle somewhere. Would also recommend using a claybar before polishing, i have found without, the results are almost night and day and the polish bonds loads better.

^^^For an understanding of polishing and how it works. It talks about machine polishing but useful info nonetheless.
When you touch the car, you're not touching the blue paint. You're touching the lacquer or clearcoat on top of it. This is what you are polishing. It is clear. There would be no point using any "colour polish" and the only one I'm aware of is turtlewax.
Hence you can use blackhole, srp and uds by hand if you wanted to.
