    Ranger Z21 fender sun faded

    Hello everyone,
    Great group of folks on this site!

    I’ll set the stage and welcome any help, comments, etc.

    my right side fender is showing oxidation from exposure to sun. It was raining some today and I was outside doing some yard cleanup. I decided to try some 1500 sandpaper on the fender as a test. As I was working on it I got a bunch of white clouding run off. I rinsed off the paper often and It is very nice looking now.

    my question is what are the next steps? Do I compound, polish, then wax?

    thank you
