As above use t-cut or a heavy duty grim remover. I'm afraid faded paint is the joy of having your car sprayed in cellulose paint as on a lot of old Novas, with red always being effected over time. My car did it and went pastely-pinky. Very gay.

ah, good old flame pink!
ive had the very same problem, but many hours of t-cut and polish has seen it come back to some semblance of red.
autoglym do the best range of treatments, though they are a little pricier.
