You won't go far wrong with Maquires (Wet Look) just make sure you first touch-up and polish-out any stone chips or surface blemishes - before Wet Look.

It will look a million dollars.....

I really like Meguiars products, but when it comes to detailing the proper use of products is more important than the brand.

Definitely try to do some paint correction (clay->compound->polish->wax--->SEALANT). I think the most important step for the coming winter will be some sort of synthetic sealant because it clings and protects paint much better than conventional wax. Should keep too much mud and snow from penetrating the pores of the paint.

Default Clay then Seal....

I just used a clay bar and good wax on my vehicle. Highly recommended.
