One of the primary reasons to clean and wax the paint on your car is not just to make it shine. It's also to remove the abrasive airborne fallout that sticks to the paint surface - tree sap, road tar, paint overspray (!!), and nasty smog particles. Washing alone will not remove this stuff, so it is necessary to periodically polish the surface (which removes the wax) and immediately follow up with a nice fresh coat of wax to protect the finish.
Combination cleaner/ waxes do work with less effort, but they arguably do not yield as good results as a seperate polish and wax.
Any treatment that promises no waxing for three years is pure hogwash. Anyway, you are the only one hurt by neglecting your car's finish for three years - the company that makes those extravagent claims doesn't give a damn.
