    matte finish looking car get glossy?

    So I gave Mike's technique a try but I am having an issue with what looks like water spots on the paint that don't come off. Attached is what I have done so far but I think it's needs a buffing to get it to the next step. Attached you will see what I mean by white spots after claying.

    matte finish looking car get glossy?

    my brother in law buffed it and didn't like how he couldn't get it that showroom shine so he left it to me. So I am trying to see what product to use and how to start it to get the showroom shine. I would think as you mentioned it is single stage as well as oxidation.
