As others offered alot of paint sealants (synthetic waxes) will offer longer protection , not necessarily better, and will work with your environment longer. You can indeed use them alone or continue to top as desired. If you are topping for looks then might consider using a carnauba based spray over your sealant after washing.
I guess, I personally use these products to try to protect the paint. Though, I can't deny the incredible feeling I get when I see paint shine. Do you recommend a "nuba" based spray?

I personally love the look of 'nubas, the wetness and depth often "seem" to look better than synthetic counterparts. That said, time and environment (Florida summer sun) do mean that a sealant is usually more beneficial so the next best think is a wet nuba spray topper. I would rather place a coat of Souveran or such if time permitted but wife and children really have needs that must be met too.
