a 3M product called Finessit...

[Mike Valant <mev4474@domain.elided>]

I have used a version of this product sold as "3M Finess-it II". It is
an excellent product, and it can bring chalky paint
back up to a beautiful standard, although it is usually used to gloss up
a new or nearly new paint finish after hand-sanding.
My recommendation for badly-chalked paint is to start with 3M Finess-it
II, then go to 3M Perfect-it Pad Glaze,
then rub in some 3M Imperial Hand Glaze, and then top off with your
favorite deep-gloss wax. It is a lot of work,
but, if the paint is saveable, it is all worth the effort. Note that
Finess-it II works best with a buffer pad, and you MUST be
careful not to "burn" the sharp corners and edges on your Milano. It
won't be nearly as risky as compounding would be,
though. I have used the above regimen several times on my Giulia Super
with excellent results.
