Same principles apply to boat care.  You get a polished finish and then need to cover it with a wax.  Most of the "one product" polishes contain a little wax to protect it from sun and the elements.  Most sprays for removing water spots have the same. 

Go pick up some carnuba and apply it.  Then once hazed rub it off.  Then from time to time reapply it to protect it.

Thank you for the advice, that sounds simple enough. And you're right, the waxes and polishes that are applied and removed "easily" typically aren't worth a damn. I started on mine with a block and 360 g. And then went to 600, 1000, 1500, and finished with 3000 trizact foam discs all on a DA. I hit it with a wool pad on a 7" makita buffer with a medium cut Norton compound. The shine is amazing and after the first trip out, it seems to have held just fine. I have to get carnuba on it soon though.
