Paint on car badly oxidized
Hey Guys,
I have decided to wash and wax my car today after the winter. However, after using the Meguiar's 3-step system, the paint is still very badly oxidized. I can tell this, because certain parts of the car are smoother than others, and those that are not, have a rough gritty feel to them. Also, swirl marks and light scratches are still visible, as well as rain spots. I repeated the process twice, and it did not help. I do not want to have it machine polished anymore, since the shop that I took it to put scratches on the car.
So do you guys know what is the best oxidization remover out there, that will remove the heaviest contamination, and is still clear coat safe? Please help.

You might try 3m Imperial Hand Glaze...

I used to have a red bmw that this combined with a good wax (I use 1 Grand Blitz Wax) would make it look like new... Its pretty gentle so I don't think it would bother your clearcoat much... Bear in mind that anything that will take out swirl marks and oxidation will take a small amount of paint (or clear coat) off...
Haven't tried it on the Maxima yet, but will when I get time this summer...
Good luck,
Jim
