something easy, cheap ($5 a bottle) and produces good results is the meguiar 3 step process; it called Deep Crystal System. #1 is a Paint cleaner, #2 a polish and #3 is a carnuba wax. You can find this at any autozone, pepboys or the like. These can all be done by hand as well. Should bring alot of life back in your paint.

I have been washing cars for 30 years and i can tell you that you can not go wrong with either Maguires 3 step or Mother 3 step. They both work very, very well. You can do the entire car by hand.
Now, I prefer Sonus products and I generally mix and match.
Just get the Maguires and you will be happy. Clay bar first if you have a lot of oxidation.
I current scheme on my black Mustang is that I use either Sonus car wash or a car wash that I got from NMRA. Both are great. Each time I wash, I hit the car with Sonus Detailer spray. This is the absolute BEST detail spray that I have used. I also like the Eagle one and the Maguires detail spray, but the Sonus is outstanding especially on black. It has some acrylic in it.
Then, I top it off with P21S with a high grade carnuba. But, like I said, if you use the Maguires 3 step you will be happy.

Like MT#1 said Meguiars is good product line and their professional line is some of the better product base out there. The link below is for the normal process that is used on my car:
