Canada wax for light colour matrix

it will be wax season soon.. can anyone suggest a brand of car wax which is ideal for light colour paints.. I have a silver color matrix.. i am going to do some touch ups and then wax..

I prefer the one application wax.. not those with 3 steps (3 bottle) thing..

What do you mean by use first? I don't use them at the same time as in 2 steps if that's what you mean.
Yeah, both @ CT.

I have a silver Matrix and have used the liquid wax touching up some spots - no full wax yet. Works fine for me.

If you want a paint protection that is going to last through multiple washes over the winter rather than a high shine for 2 weeks, then look into polymer sealants. I use the professional series polymer sealant #20 from Meguiars. In the summer, I'll use the quick detailer once in a while to keep the showroom shine.
