Default Rookie Question

I have a Black 2003 996 TT. I had the paint and finish professionally detailed last fall and have driven and washed it only a few times since. How do I get that great shine again? There are no scratches in the paint, it just has dulled a little. Do I need to wax again and if so what should I use? Thanks in advance for the help.

I would wash the car thoroughly and then wax using a high end carnauba like Pinnacle Souveran or P21S. Two light coats back to back.

A mild paint cleanser like P21S and a wax like P21S Concours or 100% would get that shine and brilliance again.
