Depends on how old. You will probably want to get a clay bar kit, removes all surface contaminents and goes straight back to the clear coat. And then use a swirl/scratch remover, and then seal it with a nice wax.

Look at Zaino and Adams those seem to be the best. I have used Zaino but am thinking of trying some of Adams stuff that Zaino doesn't have.
