I don't know much about the car, but from the pictures and videos hes shown it me, it looks like a lot of little swirls and scratches from brush. He said nothing too deep, but you can clearly see where some people have written their name in dirt, and its transfered to the paint... specifically "Angie" and "Gods country".

Im going to help him correct then coat it over the next few weeks.

Looking for some suggestions, trying to reduce costs by using what we have, but im lacking in compounds.

Test Panel:
Waterless was wipe down.
Speedy Nano prep wipe down
Meguire Ultimate Compund w/ medium cutting pad (white or orange hex)
- If not enough: Looking for suggestions or experiences with this car / paint.
Gyeron Primer
Gyeon Can Coat

I recently corrected a black Silverado for a friend.

1. Thorough wash
2. Clay
3. Meguiars Ultimate Compound on LC orange pad or yellow cutting pad on a couple especially nasty areas.
4. Meguiars Ultimate Polish on LC blue pad.
5. Sealed with Klasse High Gloss Sealant Glaze.
6. Topped with Collinite 845.

Came out looking great. Good luck.
