I spent part of the weekend burning up Mequires Products and polisher
bonnets, getting my Amazon Blue "83 TQC all spiffy.  Wow!  That paint
came alive.  I used Medium Cut Machine Polish,  #9 Mirror Glaze swirl
remover, and a Cleaner Wax.  I used several 7.5 " bonnets on a rotary
polisher.  The car was washed between each step.  The results are only
just short of a miracle.  the car sat for two years in LA sun, covered 
about 60% of the time.  Oxidation was terrible.  Now it's better than
new!

No I don't sell and waxes, I just uses once every couple years :-)
