My 2 cents that has worked for me for decades ...

Meguiar's M2 Mirror Glaze Fine-Cut Cleaner

Meguiar's M9 Mirror Glaze Swirl Remover 2.0

... applied with 3M's 3" Foam Polishing Pad (black) and a right-angle multi-speed drill.

Meguiar's M26 Mirror Glaze Hi-Tech Yellow Wax

... applied with 3M's 3" Ultrafine Foam Polishing Pad (blue) and a right-angle multi-speed drill.

With the invention of paint sealants over the years, I have added Wolfgang WG-9200 Deep Gloss Spritz Sealant as the final step.

Meguiars has a huge following. I don't use any, but thats not saying they are not any good. I just choose to use what I some other brands that work better for me.
If you like the Spritz sealant, try deep gloss paint sealant. One of my favorite sealants. I have Fuzion, have only used it a couple of times but its very nice.
Uber Rinse less. OUTSTANDING!! Actually everything Wolfgang puts their name on is excellent.

However, if one side is replaced with a beauty wax, more people would see the difference.
Same goes with a sealant, different look along with longer longevity.
Then you have coatings, which are in a whole different realm.
So, spend your time finishing out the paint to as close to perfect as you can and you will be happy with your results
couldn't agree more. I personally use Mothers and Meguiars products with great results. There are a lot of other name brand products out there though that work great. Use reputable products for the prep work and take your time on a cooled bike outta the sun. Then hit up with a brand of wax of your choice. You will be amazed at how great the finished product looks.

If you have had that can for 20 years you have raised the bar for the directions of "use sparingly"

I am a big fan of Eagle One products.
I like their detail spray, great results and FAST. I have lots of other things to do than spend a day polishing a vehicle or bike. My bike goes up on the jack, washed, blown dry, waxed, and down ready to ride in 40 minutes.
