Polishing Paint

This weekend I'm going to try to polish the paint on my 68 Barracuda.
There are several areas that look rather "flat" and don't really shine well.....
Paint job is of unknown age and I don't even know if it was clear coated.....
Hoping to bring some shine, depth and color back out...

Any advice before I start?

I wash my car with a terry cloth rag and a green can of Comet. It won't scratch delicate surfaces, use it in the shade and work a 3' x3' section at a time. Rinse and rub the surface with a bare hand. Takes about 30 minutes. Figure double that the first time you do it.

I use it on all parts of the car, glass, chrome, paint and rubber. It looks like I spent 2 days with a buffer. Been doing it on light colored cars for 30+ years. Nothing cleans better. Put the Comet on the wet terry cloth, not directly on the car.
