A spurs shirt removes all known shit

meg clay bar kit works very well, and autoglym super resin polish, its what alot of pro people use, and allways seems to get very good results

High end wax is worth the price tag for the smell alone. U will only really see the benifits if u build up a good base, by gettin rid of all the grime and swirl marks ur car will have built up (with clay bar and lube, then scratch-x or t-cut) , then a good polish, followed by a couple of coats of wax.
I also suggest that u do the polishing 'wet'. basically just spray on some water while ur doing it. this will apply it in thiner clearer layers and u'll use a hell of a lot less for the same coverage.
