Complete Exterior Detaling.

Spring and summer are coming and I want to get my TL looking it's best. I'm looking to see what everyone here has to say about it. I have light scratches in the clearcoat all over the car from my brother's horrid attempt at cleaning it.
I want to buff these out and get the car to shine like new. Does anyone recommend specific products or methods to get this done?
I've also heard about "claying" to get the contaminants out. I'm thinking this may clean up around the wheel wells that I can never get nice on my own.
Any help is great,
Alan

if you are entirely new to the detailing addiction then you wont be getting any scratches out unless you start throwing serious investment into the right products.

that being said you should start by reading some of the guides in the forums.
