You may have been removing oils from the paint surface that appeared to make the swirls look worse.

If anything, claybarring sometimes adds some scratches swirls (if done incorrectly). I always polish after a clay session. I only polish once a year, so I generally only clay once as well.

Wash - Dry - Clay - Wash - Dry - Heavy/Medium Polish - Spray Detailer - Glaze - Spray Detailer - Sealant - Wait 1 Day - Wash - Spray Detailer - Dry - Sealant

Phew. That's what I do once a year. Worth the effort every time.
