Really, you just need to polish off the oxidized top layer....

bingo, my milano red del sol looked pretty bad when i got it at 108k, but now i get people asking me if it's a new paint job, just go to a shop and get an electric orbital buffer for like $40 and some polishing and rubbing compound, and some good wax too.

Then use the polishing compound as the directions say, and if it isn't getting deep enough into the paint then use the rubbing compound, but be careful with the rubbing compound. Then wax it up and you're looking good. The whole car should take about 4-5 hours if you really do it right
