Just picked up my 2013 911S Cab. White w/beige interior and looking for suggestions for both a great car wax and a quick detail spray for after hand washing. Appreciate any suggestions offered. Thx!

Big fan of Pinnacle Souveran Wax. But if you don't mind a good bargain, there's not much finer than Poorboys World Nattys Paste wax. Their quick detailers are excellent as well.

"Griots" has been good for me
The whole car care topic is like asking what's the best oil to use (did I really mention that….)
For wax I really like
Premium Carnauba Paste Wax
But there is certainly all the prep work before the wax goes on….and of course products for each of the preparation steps…best of luck!

Rejex Wax. Adam's quick detailer. Zaino Z10 for leather. 303 for plastic, vinyl and rubber.

Second Nikon, use Griot's but whatever you use please use Griot's Paint Cleaning Clay on the car first! Going over the car with clay, the improvement is so massive it far exceeds anything you'll be able to see from any choice of wax- and this is true regardless of the cars age or how recently it was polished, etc. I've used Griot's many years now and while I know it to be excellent, I also know its possible to get similar results with other products, provided you follow the essential steps of Clay, Polish, and Wax. A little technique and skill goes a long ways....

I no longer use clay...I use Nanoskin Auto Scrub. Much faster, and I believe more effective.

dedicated sealant: Blackfire wet diamond - looks amazing, very easy to work with, long lasting. This is probably my most used LSP at this point

liquid wax - Collinite 845 - unmatched durability, seems to darken black paint, also easy to use

paste wax - blackfire midnight sun or wolfgang fuzion or p21s - all basically wipe on / wipe off. P21s you let haze a little but otherwise what I mentioned was all wipe on / wipe off

all in one / cleaner wax - poorboys polish with sealant - very easy to use, great results (really has some cleaning power) and it offers a decent amount of protection for an AIO. I've used this in the sun, cold, even in a sun shower and everytime it goes on and comes off easy

Everything applied with a DA except for the paste waxes and I do those by hand (an 'old fashioned')
if only choosing 1 wax - collinite 845. replace the wide mouth cap with a flip top and you're set for years for less than $20.
