Nice user name!!!

I'm not sure who the OEM paint supplier is. Good question, but not sure how to get the answer.

As for waxes - there are so many out there. The Mother's carnauba will give you great shine and reflectivity, but durability is not it's stong suit. It will likely start to fade within a few weeks; and once the road salt goes down, you'll likely end up with minimal protection.

For shine and durability, Klasse AIO and Sealant glaze are an excellent combination. Zaino is another synthetic that will provide excellent results. However, these two products are difficult to find in stores (you might find Klasse in auto body supply stores). Meguiar's NXT tech wax is actually a synthetic sealant that is easily available at stores. It goes on thin, and removes easily. You can also top NXT with non-cleaner wax (and the Mother's non-cleaner carnauba you already have is an excellent choice), for a bit of extra protection. If you can, wait about 12 hours before topping to allow the NXT to cure. Mother's offers a similar product called Synwax.

p21s is nice because it will not stain trim and molding. Nice feature if you're in a hurry to finish. Never used Zymol, but it gets good reviews from most folks who use it.
