Not sure whether this would be effective at all , but today I polished cupra with poorboys , then wax it with Collinite 476S . I was going to apply sealant after that , but am I right in saying that it should be sealant before wax ?

Sealant before wax.

If you're using PB polish, consider using PB EX-P Sealant. Or the best one out there imo is Jetseal

Effort.

I thought buy car looks good enough after a clean, autoglem polish and a wax and that take long enough!

It took me about 4 hours just to wash, t-cut, wax and then hoover the interior, that would take two days
