On perfectly corrected paint, NEITHER one of them are going to make anything glow. Waxes abd sealants are for PROTECTING paint. If you want your paint to shine or glow, you POLISH it to perfection. That goes for anything that shines. You don't apply waxes or sealants to chrome, glass, jewelry, brass, aluminum or paint to make them shine, you POLISH them. That is "shineology 101", as I prove in this video of a car I fixed without ONE DROP of wax on it.

Not true at all, as my own car proves. If you know what causes swirl marks and you take steps to avoid doing those things, swirl marks will NOT be an issue in your life. You may pick up a bit of damage here or there from normal use of your car but swirl marks require NEGLECT. You have to be doing something wrong over a period of time to create swirl marks. Don't make that mistake and you won't be dealing with that type of damage.
