how did u remove the oxidation? if you used a good paint cleaner then some of the shine and color shouldve come back, but even so then I find it best to follow it up with some Meguiars Show Car Glaze #7 and then coat it with some High Tech Yellow #26 to protect it.

thanks for the help guys!

I had removed the oxidation using some light compound...so now I think I'll take the whole day Saturday to try to bring the paint job back to life.

I appreciate all the help!
