    Plan of attack?

    Talked to a guy yesterday that has an older Red Chevy pick up. It was repainted 5 years ago and has a clear coat. The truck looks great well most of it. The hood and roof are oxidized like no tomorrow. I looked at it and asked him who tried to fix it. He pulled out Meguiars Ultimate Compound and said he tried by hand. He bagan to talk and tell me how he builds cars and use to detail. Well I took 2 pics with my phone to try and get some direction from the experts here. I have never had paint this bad before. Using a PC what form of attack can I try? I was thinking of M105 on an Oranage LC Pad maybe step up to the 3.5 PFW or a 4" yellow foam?
    here are the pics

    I'm a little confused. I thought single stage oxidizes, not clear coat? Could it be hazing from improper application of UC, or scratching from an improper applicator? Either way, I think you may want to attack this with a DA, polishing pads and M105.

      It looks like Oxidation I guess I will have to check it more to see if it really was clear coated.
