If you just want to make it shine a bit, take some 2000 on a soft block with plenty of water and liquid soap in the bucket, lightly knock off the worst oxidation. Then fine cut on an orbital, and hand swirl remover.
I typically go for the least destructive first, and then determine how much further things need to go to make where I can live with it.

Lawrence Shaw (sixt9rsx33) has a Gold 69 RS/Z28 which had original paint when he purchased it, basically from photos it looked to be the same condition as William's Black RS/Z.
I though (by the photos) it was salvageable with a little touch-up and figuring on some tinting to match some of the sun-bleached paint. However after he brought the car down and I took a look at the paint in person, the effects of sun on the gold paint were evident, the paint held up nowhere near as well as the black car, even though in photos it appeared much better. The car needed to be taken down and done right, there was no option besides doing it right.

Over the past 25-30 years the vehicles I have seen lead me to believe that the Metallics hold up nowhere near as well as the Solids.
