Polish. I have to do it almost every time I wash. Dying it ASAP after washing helps a bunch

clay then polish. chances are that you don't need rubbing compound.

Have you tried waxing it?

I would just polish it. Try Nu-Finish Scratch Doctor, I used that on my buddy's oxidized to shit car and it looked brand new again for a couple months.
