There are a million sealants, polished, swirl removers, etc etc. You already have the basics and yes, a good synthetic sealant wax is the best way to go s the final step for pain and finish protection. If you have a black car, I would recommend the meguiars black wax.

The process I use for my jet blck 335 is as follows:

Wash

Clay

Use scratch remover/more abrasive compound for deeper scratches. No need to specifics like swirl remover or anything like that. You only need to use these for spots that need them, not entire vehicle. When you polish during the next step, this will take away very subtle swirl and scratch marks.

Next I do a quick wash just to get off any residue or compound stuff that might be on the car still

Last is a sealant of your choice, but for a black car I would recommend the meguiars black wax.

Anything I missed to the professionals on this forum?
