Tips on how to bring back the lustre of the paint?
I've heard about wet sanding, but I'm afraid I'll screw up my paint job doing that.
I've seen on some other boards where people take rubbing compound and just compound the whole car, sometimes using an orbital buffer. Is this safe? Advice welcomed, because I'm trying to bring back the lustre of a 97 Accord that's been taking a beating under the Texas sun...

wetsand then buff it.......it takes alot of work....and a new layer of clear coat might help once the paint is "restored"

Could you perhaps recommend a brand name of scratch/swirl remover?
