I have had excellent results with turtle wax premium grade rubbing compound (green bottle) and premium grade polishing compound (black bottle). About $6.00 per 18 oz bottle, silicone free, and clear coat safe. I use both by hand. The rubbing compound is for heavy oxidation and scratches and if your not careful can burn through a lacquer finish. The milder polishing compound is what you follow up with after the rubbing compound, its finer and cuts slower. I would recommend only using the polishing compound if you haven’t done this before. It works well for swirl marks and light oxidation like the dull place you can get from resting your arm on the top of the lower bout.
