Washed,claybar,waxed
What you guys think of my finished product? First time I've done it since I owned the car,and I swear,it really made the metal flake in the grey pop with the wax,car Almost looks a different color

Looks good. Next time look into a sealant vs a wax. It lasts longer, it's just as reflective, and it goes on easier. There are hundreds of them.

Got any recommendations for a good sealer? This is my first new car,and I'd like to keep it in perfect shape,as long as possible.

Read the links in my sig to start. It's really about the the procedure, not really about the products. Meguires NXT is a good one, REJEX is another. But hands down, the easiest is blackfire crystal seal. No buffing.

Awesome appreciate the info,I've never had a car that I really had to care for the paint like this,so other than claybar,wax I'm clueless.i do use microfibers for washing,and have separate rags for wheels,body.

Great job.
Nothing like sitting back and staring at your car when you are done. Then staring at it the next day, and the next....and the next  I used the Crystal seal from Blackfire. So easy to use.

I started out using a fine clay, Wolfgang 3.0 paint sealant, two coats of Natty's red. Pics are with only the first coat of wax but you are right, the color changes just slightly.
