Used autoglym super resin polish about once a month, then this pink stuff we have at work, like a wax/polish sort of stuff, but really makes it shiney, used that once a week.

just cleaned my car..
washed it with turtle wax shampoo, turtle wax quick shine, then autogylm bumper care...
can use all different stuff on the paint and it all looks the same lmao, but the bumper care works well, more of a matt finish but does come out well 
just need some good tyre shine and some bloody tar remover now..

might look the same whatever you slap on, but it's the durability of the product you need to look at.
some products last longer than others, meaning you get that stunning reflection for longer
