I use Pinnicle XMT polishes, 1,2, and 3, with 1 being the least abrasive. #1 is a finishing polish, swirl remover. With the way you described the finish on your Z, you shouldn't need anything abrasive, just a nice finishing polish to make the paint "snap". Keep the bonnet moving and apply a slight pressure, let the polisher do the work. A minimal abrasive pad would also be advised, since you are not trying to "fix" any flaws, scratches, or remove any acid rain etchings. You'll get the hang of it!
