I don't use a wax as the durability and ability to shed dirt is limited.

Zaino is a great product but there are better and newer ones these days.

My 2 favourite products are 22PLE and CQuartz UK edition... both are nano coatings. CQuartz UK is the easiest to apply (easier than Zaino or any other sealant I have used and I have used about 15). It lasts for up to 2 years, it sheds dirt like crazy and looks great.

Keep in mind the "look" is not from the wax/sealant. Well, let me restate. 85% of the look is from the paint prep. A car that is clayed properly, polished properly (Zaino calls their products "polishes" but they are actually sealants) to remove defects and to bring out gloss and THEN sealed will look amazing. The sealant part plays the smallest role in the overall look... despite what some will claim That isn't to say it won't change the look of the car for the better but will only do so much without proper paint prep.
