Check out Chemical Guys; they have a lot of what you're looking for with decent prices and great quality. Never had a complaint with any of their products.

For wax, I prolly won't need it for the Q7 since I intend to have a ceramic coating done. So far, on my other vehicles, I cannot say enough good things about McGuire's Express Wax.

Dealer option or independent shop aftermarket. Ranges from $750-$2000 typically. Opinions vary as to effectiveness And what is the best brand but overall positive. I plan to have the Ceramic pro done:

Particularly like their waterless spray wash. When the car starts out clean but gets caught in a rainstorm, this stuff will make it look perfect in 10 minutes. Even works on the glass.

I just started using their Best of Show System. I did the paint correction, sealant and wax. I used the waterless wash last week and was getting streaks. Got streaks with their spray wax as well. What’s the technique?
