when my car did this, I used Meguiars paint cleaner/wax/polish, and it made it nice temporarily.
after a few weeks, it went back to ****, so the only thing you can do is keep doing it.
save up for a paintjob..

Yeah i got a milano red teg and it sucks. What i have found is that if you Meguires three step the hood and top it will usually come out. The spoiler and mirrors and door handles are a differnet story. I think because they are plastic, they dont buff out to well. Jus always keep wax on it and ull be ok

Ill give it to ya that its a losing battle and an ongoing struggle, but if you keep up on the wax and three step it seems to be alright. My car looked Horrible when i first got it and it looks alright now. The wax protects it from the sun so that it wont fade more.
But yeah, it will keep getting worse...

Use this thread, I would suggest, just as it does:

1) clay bar
2) orbital buffer - cutting compound
3) polish
4) sealant wax
