Very dirty paint on Astra

Hi, have an Astra that hasn’t been cleaned properly for a very long time. Bird dropping stains, polish worn off, dull spots, and generally not too clever. I want to have a go at cleaning it up prior to sale.

am thinking about snow foam then shampoo and thorough rinse then Autoglym Polish. Not sure if I should try a clar bar - never used one before. Never used T Cut either. Paint feels very dirty when I run my finger over it In some areas. A couple of pics below, all help appreciated.

This is the reason I always clean off any bird poo as soon as I see it!

Don't think even T-Cut will make a difference with that as it looks like the lacquer has been penetrated. Might be worth a trip to your local ChipsAway/paint shop to see what they can do?
