Post Have a few questions I hope you guys can help with...

Hey guys!
I recently bought my first camaro (87 Camaro LT 5.0) Its got some greasy finger prints on it, 2 chips in the paint, and unwaxed.

My questions for you guys are:
1. Best way to remove grease without harming the paint?
2. What sound I use to fill the paint chips?
3. What should I use to get circular streeks off the car?
4. What is the best Zaino to use for a bright shine, Z#?

BTW my car is white. I want it to looks its best! If you guys can take a minute to write a little anwser for each of my questions it would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

#3= Zaino Z5

#4= Zaino Z2. The Z5 will fill the swirls and stuff, the Z2 is mainly more for shine from what I understand.

I'd try rubbing alcohol or WD-40 to try to remove it first.

2. What sound I use to fill the paint chips?

Use a matching touch-up paint that you can get from any GM dealer.
