I use mostly Adam's Polishes Buttery Wax due to it's super easy on/off & very high shine & depth, doesn't leave any residue on any trimwork, and if you get it on any trim, let it sit by accident for a month, it'll still wipe off easy. Once you achieved proper washing, claying, polishing/swirl removal, simply apply the wax with a clean microfiber applicator to the entire vehicle, then easily wipe off wax residue with a clean microfiber polishing towel and your done. Buttery Wax will last anywhere from 2-4 months depending on driving conditions. If you need anymore info just let me know. Check it out at www.adamspolishes.com PM for discount code if interested

Meguiars #26
Mother Reflections + Reflections top coat (Reflections without the cleaners)
Jeffs Werkstatt Prime + Acrylic Jett Trigger
Optimum Poli-Seal + OCW spray

Any one a great choice. Megs #26 is the easiest to find (available at any auto parts store) and its dirt cheap at $12 a bottle. If you have a PC use Poli-Seal with a polishing pad and follow with OCW. Poli-Seal has about as much correction power/cut as Megs #80 and looks great.
