I used Meguiar's Ultimate Compound on my beamer to restore the colour (which it did!) after a machine polish and followed up with a good carnauba waxing and it turned out great! I'll do the same with my Cayman when I eventually get it back.

+1 for Ultimate Compound (& Polish/Wax). Used it on my Guards Red Turbo after it was stood for a few months a couple of years ago the results speak for themselves :D
