Zymol is regarded as one of the best around...kinda a pain to get off, needs multiple coats, but really deep shine. I've used Mothers products (clay bar, swirl remover, glaze, carnuba topcoat) with really good results. I ordered the Griots polisher, compunds, pads and detailed the car last year, then used the Mothers glaze, and wax...really good results. I'm going to try that new Mothers FX spray wax as an in-between detailer this spring.

Most of this is available at Canadian Tire.

I use poorboys and Wolfgang products, they work great. Used the mothers products and they are not bad. I get mine from eshine canada.
A clay bar is a must otherwise you are just sealing in a bad finish.
