meguiars plast-x works wonders, i worked at baron bmw and they swore by this stuff. It was a courtesy thing we did for the customer and it really works.

i worked at a detail shop for toyota

We used a 3m made polish used to polish off paint overspray and minor imperfections it's extremely fine grit

Also, try TOOTHPASTE. they rock.
