    Newbie needing lots of help

    I'm brand new to the whole concept of car cleaning and waxing and such. My cars paint has heavy oxidation on the top and starting to move to the top of the door. Where would I even start to reverse this?

    I have a Blue Civic EP3

    Gonna need some pics to see what you're dealing with. From the sounds of it, you're looking at clear coat failure, not oxidation...

    Unfortunately that looks to be clearcoat failing in those spots. There is nothing i have tried that can return any shine to those areas and a repaint is the only solution.
