I'm having this battle with myself as to what I should use on the car when I get a break in the weather. I am now using VM/EX/S100 with good results. I think I am going to go with some 1Z PP to remove some light swirls, then protect. My question is, what is everyone's opinon as to what really gives a red car pop and depth? If the concensus is that EX is my best choice, then fine. Otherwise, I am open to suggestions of any sort. Lastly, is 1ZPP too harsh?
Thanks a BUNCH!
Brett

S100 and Pinnacle Souveran. 
They just seem to make red look incredible.

Here is a pic of my laser red Mustang after using Meguiars #9 swirl mark remover, #7 show car glaze and #26 high tech yellow wax.  | |

This is with Z......  
Not bad for a car that is almost 6 years old!

Souveran as the topper.
Souveran "pops" best for me on my Thunderbird.
I've tried lots of different waxes, but Souveran is best for red.
Trust me.

I disliked Zaino on my red Mica corolla... Made the color look really flat and dead, but highly reflective... Even non-detailing people noticed the difference when I switched back to wax.
I liked Klasse AIO + IHG + 26 the most for red...
