Following Scottwax`s tip on clearkote vanilla moose, I was able to get rid of the oxidation on my uncle`s sentra. Anyway, here are the steps I used, any comments are welcome.
P.S. I was in a hurry to get this done, if I wasn`t in a hurry, what other step I could use to make it better?
1. Wash
2. Clay
3. Clearkote Vanilla moose
4. Meguiar #26 (Yellow Wax)

I did the clearkote by PC, wax by hand. :)
My uncle is still facinated by the result. He didn`t believe I can take out the oxidation, but he was willing to give me a shot. As of result, I brought him back his new car. :D

Excellent work there! I`m surprised the hood came out as good as it did. Amazing how pretty decent paint can be hiding under all that dirt and crap sometimes! :xyxthumbs :xyxthumbs

Is that a factory paint job?!?
My `01 Sentra has 100x the orange peel that beautiful car does...:(

That looks awesome. Have to agree with audio1der about the orange peel. My 97 Sentra had no orange peel. The new ones have more the enough.

The hood actually has orange peel if you look at it closely, it`s rather dissappointing to see. But if looking from far away, you can`t tell.

VM seems to be great stuff. I just got mine a few days ago, when I opened the package and saw this milk like substance with "oil" floating on top I was like "WTF is this"? But the results seem to speak for themselves. I have only tried it once with a PC and it took out about 50% of the swirls on my vehicle, impressive. So is this a pure polish, or does it have fillers?

Yep, that`s exactly what I thought when I first got it. It just seems too liquidy compare to other polishes.
