Bilpolish....haha...I know that a bil is a car but translated in dutch its funny!!!
Talk talk talk! No pictures!
What's up with you guys??
The proper way to get what you want is called colour sanding and you need to use a 1200 grade wet and dry paper with a good sanding block, you flatten it until it perfectly flat and dull then polish it using a proper polishing machine and start with G3 then G10 polishing compund finish with a machine polish then hand wax.
its quite a daunting process the first time but will give a better finish than any high cost paint job, I used to do it for a living manay years ago, very satisying and you can get a real mirror finish flatter than any wet finish.
For a few hundred pound you can buy a decent starter kit

The second pictures I took with my Samsung Galaxy Nexus is a real close up and looks blurred but it it the metalic flackes that make it look that way.:-)
I got the Meguires DA Polisher complete kit for Xmas. Just waiting to test it (experiment) on my Sons Clio which has very poor paint.

I would be very careful about tackling your paintwork on the RS
Leaving a car covered with blankets for all that time is not necessarily a good thing
They can sometimes absorb water, particularly if the garage is damp
Please check out the paintwork for dampness and micro-blistering before you dive in
