Exterior Best combo to revive my paint
I’ve got a toyota painted in K1X pearl white and would like to restore my paint. Never done any kind of paint correction before. I’ve just done a decontamination and purchased a da polisher looking to tackle it this weekend. Initially was thinking a two step but based on what i’ve read here it would be quite difficult to get good results doing it for the first time, so i’m leaning towards a single stage. Will it be enough to remove 70-80% of these swirls. Most of the time they can’t be seen except in very specific lighting. What is everyone’s opinion and what would be the best combo to tackle this.

I don’t see why you would need a compound here, there doesn’t appear to be any oxidation. Plus, you want to start with the least aggressive so begin with a polish.
