Best wax / sealant

Michigan winter is fast approaching, I'm looking for tips on the best high-strength sealant coat for my new X6 M... I've been told acrylic waxes are the best, is this true? What does the group recommend? Want to get it into a detailer and have them "go to town" before winter comes...

I only use Zaino products and think they are some of the best.

I had used Zaino for a while but it's hard to see (when trying to remove) after it's been applied. At least it was for me. I have moved over to Wolfgang Car Care products. Just washed and waxed my Alpine White X6M this weekend and their deep gloss paint sealant is awesome.

The last six cars I've owned all have been balck, and I am really picky when it comes to detailing. I live down by the beach where the salt air is really a huge factor. I only use Klasse brand products for interior and exterior. I have tried them all, and it works best.

From the cars I have seen in Michigan, no nice vehicle should be driven on Winter roads up there! Park it and drive a beater over the Winter. It may look OK on the top, but it will be rusted solid underneath! Avoid any possibility of road salt getting on the vehicle.
