Try your hand at a few good waxes to see which one will give you the look that you are hoping for. Make sure that your surface is thoroughly polished prepped first. Meguiars is a very old line that will produce good results. If you are really serious about finding a very good wax, you should look at a few detailing boards such as Autopia.org or Megs online. If you want a short recommendation then I'd say try out brands such as Natty's Blue, Chemical Guys, P21S (one of my favorites) or Mothers, which is a very reasonably priced product that can produce respectable results.
