As for the sealant and wax question, the general rule of thumb is, the toughest goes in first, so in most cases its sealant first and then wax, most sealants out there can really outlast waxes except for some waxes that are as tough as sealant, even with this case sealants go in first before waxes, now if you have a Collinite wax that would last a really really long time and have a cheapo wax from some unknown manufacturer that only gives you 2 weeks then i would tell you to put on the wax first before the sealant, but even if you do that certain sealant can migrate towards the paint, one example of the is Opti-seal which when applied over wax in a matter of hours will reposition itself towards the paint putting the wax to the outer layer, there are a lot of different scenario's to consider but 90% of the time its sealants first before wax
