any recommendations for car wax?

I like to look at the result customers get with each reviewed products, here on amazon there are pictures for the product Chemical Guys Black Light Infusion kit
From Chemical Guys : The proper order of all the steps to a full detail would be: wash, clay, compound, polish, glaze, seal, wax.
Apparently the Black Light is a hybrid glaze. From what I understand it means it is both a glaze product and a sealant all in one. Black wax would be the last step.

The ultimate high gloss polish? Polish Angel High Gloss made in germany :
It seems to work great on red paint. Not so sure on black paint. Sometimes a product is better suit for specific colors.

I am using this thread to give a follow up of my situation. I am trying to work with the dark angel wax and it is quite difficult. Much more than with a spray wax. If you work outdoor you need to watch for weather conditions, prep, application and drying time. I did not yet achieve a perfect result but at least I am starting to see what this wax is capable of. It really gives a nice dark smooth shine to the HHR. Sadly each time I had some oily spot left on the HHR. I think after a couple of wash it helps. I wonder if there is a product that can be used in combination with this paste wax to make it easier to use.
So far I tried to get reasonable weather condition, not too sunny and comfortable. I washed the car with a 4x DAWN. I did not have to clay because I already do from time to time. Then I used the prep product CMX. Then I rinsed with water and dried it with micro fiber (Kurkland yellow microfiber towels that I absolutely love). Then I gave it a small polishing work (porter cable polisher, adam's polish and white rupes pad). Re prep it with CMX and re rinsed it with water and dried it. Then I finally waxed it with dark angel. This time I left the wax dried close to one and half hour, and still, after buffing with the micro fiber I get oily texture left on the HHR. It's only evident under light or sun.
Very hard to get everything right with a paste wax. I can tell you that. Much harder than with a spray.
