Wax? Detail Polish?

I've used Shine Armor...decent stuff, does the trick, but most of these products advertise extreme results and it's just not scientifically possible. You'll likely be disappointed if you believe the hype with any of these spray sealants.
 
I wash and wax this truck the same as I have for the past several years, using a number of products I've used and liked - the process is always evolving.

Wash with Meguiar's Gold Class (mitt only) or Chemical Guys car wash (it's green, I forget its actual name) if using my Torq foam cannon on my pressure washer. I always use the 2-bucket method with grit guards in each bucket.

Dry with a silicone water blade.

If not waxing with my DA ROB, I use Griot's Garage Spray-On Wax (SOW) while drying.

If waxing with the DA, I use Meguiar's Ultimate Liquid Wax (ULW). It beads up nicely for at least 6 months.

Buff by hand, and then GG SOW for some extra shine.

GG Rubber & Vinyl Dressing for the tires.

Rain-X 2-in-1 for the exterior glass, Stoner's for the inside of the glass.

Meguiar's interior detailer for plastics, and up until now I've been using Meguiar's Leather Cleaner/Conditioner on the leather seats in my vehicles, but with this leather, I'm not sure what to use - anyone with a Limited care to share what you're using for leather cleaner/protectant?

I can wash/dry/SOW my truck in about an hour, add 20-30 mins for applying a real coat of wax (depending on how long it takes to haze over).
