Roof: Compounded, polished, glaze & wax
Clayed entire car (NASTY stuff came off!!!) Used Meguiars ultimate trio, compound polish & paste wax. Also used show car glaze (polish) after the ultimate polish to 'soak' the paint. stuff works awesome.

I always prefer going by hand, takes alot of time and effort, but you know the results in the end are well worth it.
