I appreciate all the good advice I got asking what to use on my car. I`m part-way through, and will take some more pictures throughout.
First caveat - I have no idea how to take car pictures to demonstrate the image. I`ll entertain all reasonable suggestions.
For now, I still couldn`t see any real defects in the image (no spider-webs, or orange peel), so I avoided polishing for now (I`ll reserve that for my other cars.)
So first step was to use PUPP.
Here`s a few pictures after application with a PC and buffing:
This first picture is of the roof. The car is Platinum colored, and this was taken indoors with florescent lighting.

And this one which shows several different painted surfaces, Black on the carbon fiber gas filling area, as well as Platinum on the carbon fiber B pillar, and the glass on the side window.

Next step is to use the PS over the PUPP.
BTW, how long do I need to wait to apply the Soveran? I want to get as much protection on the car as possible, as I have a track day coming up.
Also, if this is more appropriate for Click and Brag, would one of the moderators please move it. If it`s OK here, that`s fine too.
After the PS, I`ll take some pictures outside that can show the metalic flake on the Platinum. Really doesn`t show off in what I took.
