Oxidized Paint Fix

Oxidized Paint Fix
I have looked into this a great deal and got some opinions from a couple different people. I have a black 03 Maxima and the Florida sun has taken a toll on the paint. The hood is oxidized (not yet peeling) and I really want to do something about it. I have attempted compounding the hood and if anything, it seems to have gotten worse.
I plan on just taking it to have the hood painted, but are there any temporary fixes that may help cover it up a bit until then? Should I try to take it to a professional detailer and have them polish and compound it before resorting to having it painted?

I agree it is sometimes hard to determine how far gone it is. this is why i press people to put at least a cheap as wax on their car, it's better than having no wax ever hitting their paint. My brother did this to his car and now the clear coat has peeled away, LONG GONE, he has to get his car repainted....

I agree, and again, I don't care what BS wax you put on your car.. It's better than NEVER putting wax on your car. That alone can prolong your paint life.
