I would personally recommend what fiend61 suggested first before wet n dry!

Mine were continental yellow when I got the car, I was suggested the same options. I took the T-cut option first as I had some in the shed.

Roughly 5 - 10mins with it and a duster for polishing, they came up like new!

Thats just my opinion on taking the easiest option first!

HTH  :y
