    sand it down with wet n dry paper first to put a fine texture for the paint to grip to

    it's an abrasive polish that takes a very thin top layer off the finish. usually used on paintwork to bring it back to a bright shine by removing dull oxidised dead layer and road grime etc.
    
    just a couple of quid a bottle form local motor factors or halfords etc.
