Try Turtle Wax Rubbing Compound.  NOT the one that comes in the shoe 
polish-like container, but rather the one that comes in the lighter fluid 
shaped container.  Yes, I do believe there is a difference.  I used it to 
remove oxidation from my aunts red Datsun.  It removed the oxidation, but not 
the paint.  On the hand, the "shoe polish" style is abrasive and will remove 
paint.  Do NOT use either if your car has a clear coat.
