Best compound... no contest, Shurhold's Buff Magic
Wax is a little harder IMO. Tried Meguiars (multiple varietys), Shurhold, Colonite but in the end I like Starbrite Premium Marine Polish with PTEF.

This is the same combo I've used the last couple years. I do my cutting with the Buff Magic and then use Bass Pro Shops generic version of the Starbright with PTEF for half the price.

Last year I used Presta compound and ultra cutting cream, followed by Colinite wax. I'd never done it before, and I was impressed with the results.
I followed these instructions and found them very helpful : http://www.sailnet.com/forums/gear-maintenance/52772-tips-compound-polish-wax.html
