Wash
Clay
Rinse
Paint Cleaner/mild polish
Wax
Those are the basic steps. There are several excellent products that should not be difficult to use. I like P21S/S100 paint cleanser and wax. Meguiars Meddallion paint cleaner, Poorboy SSR1, Clearkote's Vanilla Moose are all great cleaners. P21S/S100, Meguiars #26, are all easy waxes to use.

As has been mentioned, Z is decent stuff but, it just didn't float my personal boat. I found it to be timely to apply and yielded the look of suran-wrap on my truck. It does, however, offer a super-high level of protection that apparently holds up well but, then again, a bunch of products offer that with less time and deeper shine. (don't rip me a new one here guys, I'm just stating a personal opinion!)

Fortunately, you nor I have the types of problems in our paint that REQUIRE a buffer to remove them. A buffer can be a necessary evil if you have serious enough surface imperfections. Some products like Meguiar's #84 REQUIRE that you utilize a rotary.... some products, like Meguiar's #9 don't...It's just that simple...

yeah, zaino may seem to take a while, but it takes minimal time/effort to apply and buff off, as opposed to meguiars. i have used their stuff for years. i did my L with zaino, and my ex's jeep with meguiars the same day, using a buffer to apply the meguiars, buff off by hand. i'll never go back, the zaino buffs right off, and lasts longer. i just can't toss towels on my hood, they slide right off!
if you did any multi-step process, like you should, the amount of time it takes will be comprable. the zaino actually took me less time because of the ease of use.
oh yeah i almost forgot:
