Here's what I use.

1. Meguiars car wash detergent (cleaning)
2. Mother's clay bar (removal of surface contaminants)
3. Meguiars Scratch-X - should help with scratches/swirls
4. Meguiars Polish
5. Meguiars Gold Wax
6. Mother's professional detailer, spray

Work's great. Between major waxes I use Meguiars quick wax and the Mothers professional detailer.
