Our 9320 tractor hood is faded and I'd like to bring it back to life. Can someone recommend a product that will bring back the shine? TIA

This is what I use all the time and have very good results. I do 2 coats of this then 1 coat of wax. Do not let it sit on the paint too long or else it will dry on and will not come off.

I have had great luck with Meguiars Ultimate compound! It Brought a neglected 8300 back to looking like a new tractor.

...If I was doing it...I might buy a can of buffing compound, but I would start with polishing compound. The difference is just the size of the abrasive in the material...and a novice wouldn't burn a hole in his paint with the polishing compound quite as fast. Either product...you put a small amount on a (scrupulously clean) polishing bonnet on your polisher (You won't remove oxidation like that by hand unless you've got arms like Swartzenegger)...and start working it into the paint. It will remove the paint oxidation...and a little bit of the paint. Then wipe and buff with a terrycloth towel. I sometimes keep a spray bottle of water handy in case the material gets just a bit thick...and give it a spray as I continue buffing.
