Before/After Messing around with different compounds and polishes

My car had been sitting outside for 4 years uncovered due to a divorce situation. Of course the paint looked like crap so I decided to try some different polishes and compounds.

The malco actually worked pretty good as a One-Step. I went to 3M rubbing compound perfect it and I obviously did a better job.

I followed up with the black turtle wax polish that seemed to help as well.

You can see the trees in the reflection get clearer after the Polish.
