well i decide to wax my camry today and my paint job is really hazy and you can't even see the color green all u see is white haze on top of my camry and on my hood.so i decide to wax it and i think it turned out well. what u guys think.before and after.

another shot of the roof but i should have used a buffer then the result would have being even greater effect but i don't own a buffer just yet,

but slowly but surely i will.

product i use black magic first and then symbol second.

that white haze on the left of the roof is really that white

in person and the right side is after the wax job..

Looks good. You know you can buy a Ryobi buffer from Home Depot for like $40.
I was going to say, if the hazing was permanent, you'd need a new clearcoat

i dont' know if i want to spend money and put a clearcoat on the camry cuz i might sell the camry.

my hood looks like that, the clear coat is oxidizing and it looks like shit. the only solution is to get the hood repainted for me.

you can fix that white haze by using a buffer and black magic wax the left side of the roof is not waxed yet so that's why it's white i can make the white haze dissapear

OH by the way that big white circle thing in the center of the car is not white haze that is the camera flash..

My car's pillars were hazed like that and just some simple wax helped it a lot. Now that I've owned the car for close to a year and did 2 extensive detailing jobs(in my opinion at least) the car looks a lot better. If you keep it up, wax it once every 1 or 2 months, and do a huge detailing job every 6 months, it gets a lot better.

Looks much better, now that you did it once I would get in the habit of doing it every one or two mouths. By doing this you will greatly increase the life of your paint.

Any good detail shop should be able to take care of that. It need compound, polish, glaze, and wax to make it like new again. But that could cost ya

autozone/kragens/wal-mart, constantly sells buffers for about 20 bucks or 10 if you can deal with one smaller than 10 inches.
