How much work is it worth?
So here's the deal, my wife's car is in need of some help. More than just a good wash, it needs a little correction. It is a daily that gets parked outside, under trees, and abused on a (almost) daily basis. We're also looking at trading it in soon to get something to accommodate kids and stuff better.
But I need your help. I'm not looking to two-step it, or really, ceramic coat it. I'm thinking a good one-step, maybe a good sealant and wax just until we trade it in. So, what kind of pad and polish would you recommend to do a quick go around on some daily's? My daily is due for the same (also parked outside, but I'm a little more caring of my car haha) so I'll be trying to implement it on a few.
But is this level of work worth it on a car destined to be trashed all over again by a dealer? Also, can anyone help tell me what's going on in the attached picture and what I might can do to fix it?

Blackfire One Step or 3D Speed with an LC white pad should do it.

If the paint is a bit harder, maybe an orange pad. And follow up with Blackfire hybrid liquid. They work very well together

UD nailed it.
It is no coincidence that man's best friend cannot talk.

Yes, it’s worth it. Good practice and love the products recommended already.

You could use this car as a practice car, since whatever she gets next (I assume) will be nicer, newer, more expensive.

I’m in the same boat. Since car (2017 gle43) goes back on lease very soon will guinea pig w it. I dont know why but a few hears back i purchased perfect finish. It only came in a big bottle. I don’t regret the purchase, just the size as its more than a weekend warrior needs. Haven’t used it much so will now. Hopefully next owner gets a near mint car and paint finish and loves it like I did.

BF one step, as mentioned above. Do you have any products laying around that you haven’t tried as you could use the vehicle mentioned for practice ( which is what I did with our 19 year old Acura TL. But luck had it 6 weeks later the transmission went. I guess it didn’t like me driving her around showing off her shine)
