Help with detailing supply

Hi all looking for a little input,

I am due to resupply my polishes/waxes/pads

My experience is generally with Meguires products, looking to try either Zaino's system or Adams polishes. Anyone used both of these?

I currently have Porter Cable XP DA I use with uber pads. I also have the new Nanoskin 6inch fine auto scrub, first time using this instead of Clay'ing
I am looking for a light polish and a new wax, though honestly, I do not see any spiderwebbing or scratches on my finish.

The Zaino system is appealing as it is an all in one step by step approach, downside being I have to apply it all by hand

Adams has lots of products, somewhat confusing. I was thinking of using the Fine polish, brilliant haze, and buttery wax with their pads accordingly.

Thoughts?

Oh, the car is silverstone with carbon roof

Adams, Mezerna, and Sonax are the products I use. I just get whichever is on sale/special.

I used Menzerna SF4000. 1-step Polish, produced really good results.

By the way the Nanoskin is fantastic. Might want to pick up the block too, else just do the bumper, rockers, etc where a 6-inch won't go with just regular ole clay.

I ended up buying mostly Adams products, Interior cleaner, Glaze, Buttery Wax and Detail spray. I will post some pics this weekend after I use them
