most of the paint on my car is in pretty good cond but the passenger door is really dull compared to the rest of the car and there are a couple of patches where its really faded (turning white).
Is there anything i can buy or do to try and get the colour and shine back apart from having the panel resprayed.

i take it it is metallic
id suggest that panel may well have been painted at some time
try a product called p21s paint cleanser
this will remove any oxidised paint/laquer
this may well do the job
if it improves things but not entirely then id suggest using a stronger product such as g3 as richy suggests
but apply and remove both by hand if you havent used a mop/orbital before as incorrect use can cause "burn"
always use the mildest product first and work up to the most abrasive until you achieve what you are looking for
