Got any pictures? Really need to see how trashed the paint is to recommend anything..
Will get some after I next wash it. In most places the paint looks reasonable, but you can see that it is completely covered in paint swirls with the sun hits it, there are faint scratches littered around here and there especially around the door handles where people have slipped with the key, there are a few deeper scratches which are probably in-curable here and there, one per panel on average I suppose. Additionally, there is cracked paint/stress marks on the bumpers from where it has has low-speed shunts and bumps in the hands of previous owners, but there are only two small rust spots on the whole car, which I'm going to deal with.
So it is never going to look great, but if I can get rid of the worst of the swirlyness and reduce the visibility of the scratches, then that would be good.

I was thinking about grabbing a cheap orbital polisher and giving it a polish, as it will do a better job than doing it by hand, but I've never used one and I hear you can do more harm than good if you don't know what you're doing?
