    I have been looking around online, but there will be hundreds of different products I can choose from when I go buy the product (polish, wax, rubbing compound). I was wondering what you guys have used and what you have done to remove built up oxidation off your car.

    Oxidation is not a build up per say, but rather a deterioration of the clear coat.

    Hire a body shop to do a complete color-sand/buff. A rubbing compound may help, but only if you use a VERY high speed buffer.

    Use a clay bar.
