Looking for some help

So I've been deciding on what products to buy to keep my Aspen White STi in tip top shape. I am thinking of going with quite a few Griots products (their buffer, orange and red pads, and polishes 1-4) along with Collinite 845 wax for that final, durable coat. I have bought Pinnacle Souverans clay to get the paint clean. Will I need any sort of cleaner wax in addition to all this?



Will these polishes suffice for my needs for now? I want to get the light swirls and cobwebbing out of the paint, then follow up with some NXT and top that off with the Collinite.



I was thinking of trying a good glaze for white cars. I have researched but there arent very many specific options that I found. Any good suggestions?



So is my choice of products so far alright?
 
If you're claying and polishing the paint, there's nothing else needed in terms of cleaners. 845 also has some solvents in it, which will act as light cleaners.



Anyways, I'd personally skip the NXT step and go straight to Collinite. NXT's durability won't compare, and will likely compromise the durability of 845.



Another line you should check out is Duragloss. DG 105 is an awesome sealant - very easy to use, and in my experiences, is a little more durable than Collinite 845. In my experiences it also looks better on lighter colors, so it would be perfect in your application.



If you want even more "POP" after this, you can top it with something like Pinnacle Signature Series II. ;)

Thank you for the advice! Im surprised that there is something more durable than the Collinite. I am definitely willing to try it though, especially since it is very inexpensive. As for the Pinnancle Signature Series II, is there a different, comparable product that is less expensive that I can use to make the white 'pop' ?
