Oxidation

[94JagXJ12]

Hey everyone,
Well my mom happen to bring me a gift basket this week..full of Meguiars products. Basket had a 400rpm orbital waxer/polisher, Deep Crystal Car wash, Gold class clear car liquid car wax, Fine cut cleaner, swirl remover 2.0, Scratch X, hi tech yellow wax, one step leather care along with a bunch of terry cloth towels.
Im needing to know if I have everything I need to get some oxidation off of my old 94 Jag XJ12. Its base coat and clear coat paint. The hood, roof and truck have a few white spots. Im wanting to get rid of and bring back the overall look to be better. Not showroom, just so the car looks nice as it can since its old. Any tips would be great. Ive been to 4 shops to get a clay bar and no one has it. Does a bar of regular soap work the same way? LOL

Not sure in what order to use all of these, but also I dont want to be out working 12hours doing this car. Need the best formula that would get me there the fastest. Ive read so many entries about all these items Im stumped. Then I have to look up #s cause some use those to the name of the product and its hard to keep track of for a newbie. HELP. Cheers

It is very hard to tell from the pic but it appears that a refinish is in order.

Joe's right. The paint on this car is too far gone to save using any company's products.
