Default Polish Old Paint - I'm not Strong Enough - Help

Hi,

I've got an old diesel, 1984, original blue paint.
And her paint is oxidized.
I did try hard to polish and buff, but there are white
streaks all over.
Really, It takes such work to rub in and I'm not that
strong. Surprised at how hard I had to work....
with not a good outcome.
What would Be the Easiest way for me to go about
getting her shine back a bit. I don't need a custom,
good as new look, but I hate to see her dull paint.
Can I wash her and put on a clear coat?....
I've tried a cleaner wax, and I found it hard to rub in
sufficiently.
Guess, I'm a wimp.....
I'm about 120 lbs, blue eyes, blonde hair, love long walks on the
beach......NOT
Any advice on product or procedure would be appreciated.
Thanks much
LindaJane

Hello - have you tried using a power polisher/buffer? That would take less effort on your end and should produce the results that you're looking for.
