No you need a paint cleaner before you polish or wax.
Depending on how bad the oxidation is you have varying degrees of cleaner. I would try the hand paint cleaners first like the one Meguiars sells in stores and if that doesn't work for you then go for the commercial stuff and an orbital buffer. At this stage its better to get a pro shop to do it for you because you can cuase some damage if you do not know what you're doing with the orbitor.

Someone here just posted their experience with oxidation in the last month...look for the thread.
