    OP, some more ideas. I used to use the Klasse Twins: All-in-One and Sealer Glaze (AIO + SG) with P21S/S100 for years, then Meg's NXT, then Ultima Paint Guard Plus (PGP)...now I am trying Meg's Ultimate Liquid Wax (it's a newer/consumer version of the M21 2.0) and it is excellent on my dark grey BRZ.

    That Jet Seal Rocks! I went down to their shop here in LA the area and grabbed a ton of stuff, probably more then I needed. I spent about $160 after cherry picking out what I thought is a good mix of their line up. I also picked up some ultra plush polishing towels that are really nice.

    I guess I'm old school. I went with Meguiar's Gold Class Carnauba Plus Paste Wax. Did 2 coats, first what a few days after purchase then another coat a week or so later. I have a grey truck so getting this color to look good is a challenge. This wax is top shelf. After a good rain the truck is completely clean like I hand washed it and has a nice deep shiny reflection.

    I don't have a Taco yet, but I can talk about Chemical Guys products. I love their stuff. If you're looking to wax a silver finish like in your avi, I'd recommend their Blacklight product followed by JetSeal, then finish up with Pete's 53. Pete's should pick up the silver flake in your paint nicely. Those aren't very expensive products either. Sign up for their mailing list and you should be able to buy things pretty economically during Black Friday.

    One more thing about Chemical Guys. All of their products have a nice scent to them. I realize they just need to do their job protecting your paint, but they also smell good. Don't forget to pick up a bottle of their "Stripper Scent" air freshener either, you won't regret it.

    I personally love Klasse products, and I have spent a small fortune on different products. To each their own, but I don't foresee myself using anything else. I also use Meguires clay bar system.

    I applied the ChemicalGuys Jet Seal to my truck when I got it. Always used their products and love it.

    anyone ever used 5-star shine? they claim that it lasts 5 years (sounds like snake oil) but reliable reviews have shown 1-2 years. all debris is supposed to rinse off
