Mine turned out like ****.. Maybe it was the orbiter i used...

 

Orbiter moves stuff around....no real correction power. A good DA and Maguiars Ultimate Compound (as an over the counter solution) will do a great job. The micro abrasive tech they use makes it more like a stout polish vice a classic rocks in a bottle from years past. Love it....and often the least aggressive approach to get it done. Similar issue on a buddies Ridgeline from this summer.... pic below.....wash with dawn, clay, ultimate compound, and wax or seal

 

that was the requirement but i dont own one and was to lazy to go out and get one.. Someone gave me a orbiter so i figured i'd use it.. Wrong answer

 

I hear you. I bought an orbiter first years back....good fox a wax in a pinch but any correction...well no.

Check into Porter Cable as one to get on a budget ( like me). Enough power for the high majority of what a hobbyist does.

Flex, Rupes, and others are more high end ones. Pick the pads of your choice with a backing plate and you are there.

Lots of DIY info on Autotopia, Autogeek and the net. Nice slow arm speed, nothing too aggressive...and enjoy.

One thing.....watch out, it's addicting.

 

Correct me if I am wrong here, but these pictures show etching, which is different than oxidization (or clearcoat failure like the OP has). Etching is simply that... an acid has started to "etch" its way into the clear.
What the OP has is the clear is actually coming away from the paint.
