All dark colors pop after a paint correction. You have a good start as the car looks great. My recommendation is purchase a random orbital polisher, compounding pad, polishing pad, compound, polish, and synthetic paint sealer and microfiber towels. Best $350-400 I have ever spent as these old shoulders were complaining after every wax. I use Meguiars products but any quality products are good. Use autogeek for info on how to use. Clay, compound, polish and seal. You will be amazed how easy it is to make a car look fabulous. After the initial job you probably will not have to compound, just polish and seal every two years if the car is garaged.
This is the information I was looking for. I will let you know how it turns out.
Thank you

I would change all the fluids if not done recently- Oil, transmission, brake, power steering, rear differential, antifreeze. This will give you a good baseline going forward. Brake pads, cabin filter, air filter should be checked. Hopefully timing belt has been done, if not that is a priority. Enjoy for many miles!
The previous owner had all the maintenance done including the timing belt from a Lexus dealership. Tires, brakes, serpentine belt, new windshield. Your information was spot on.
Thank you

Use a decontamination spray, thoroughly wash it, clay it if needed, compound, polish, and then wax at least twice and you should be able to read a book in the reflection from 3 ft away.
Striker can you direct me to a UTube video with these steps.
Thank you
