Need some advice

I about a week I'll be detailing an 88' Porsche that is red in color. My question is......what would yield the best results on the finish? I'm guessing that it's single stage paint. The car is in great shape, as a matter of fact it'll be in a "all Porsche" car show next Saturday. The owner want's this car flawless and then he'll haul it in an enclosed trailer for the 100 mile trip to the show.

As for tools I own a "Cyclo polisher" with yellow, green and white pads. I use mainly Meguiars products and that is all that I have on hand. What would make the red paint really dance in the sun? I want to make the owner proud!
 
I love singloe stage paint, but can't help with the Megs products as I don't use them much.

Having said that I would start with a light cut compound with a cutting pad then, so to a polish with a polishing pad, then glaze the car for a real wet look and finish up with a paste wax. Single stage really has no depth to it but this combo will bring the red back to life!
Here is the before and after of a trooper that I did that was red single stage paint
 
vdubbya,
I'm with Beemerboy. Polish, top with glaze, and then wax. This combo works great on darker colors. Should make your porche pop.

Sounds great! I'll try that. I have a few other Right Look products around so I'll figure something out. This car is really a show car so it's already in great shape. Thank's for that advice.
