It's in the "hard work" isle...
Make sure you've got a buffer, and here's the best process I've found, others might have something else.
If the flake has already come through the clear, don't waste your time, it's too far gone, but if not...
1. 3M heavy duty compound. Keep it wet, take your time and be thorough.
2. 3M Finesse polish same advice
3. Protec polish/sealer
It'll look like new again.
Should take 6 hours more or less to be complete.

Hey Pat, I am from Burnet, is there anyone in our area that can remove it and wax it and all that good stuff, because I work in the Oilfield and rarely have time at home so I could drop it off when I am there and pick it up when I am back home again

Ag, if the oxidation is just light, Penetrol will remove it. You will find it in the paint dept at Lowes. Wipe it on, let it dry, rub it off. It works very well on light oxidation, especially on lighter colors. A 1 quart can will cost about $10,

You can take it to Gemco in Kingsland, or the detail guy (sorry brain cramp on name) on 281 & 29, he can compound/polish it out.
