[Question] Best Product to show Pearl Metallic on Pearl White

From what I read
VM -> EX-P route the best product to show the pearl paint
I used AIO --> NXT .....my car just looked really wet...but not as metallic pearl anymore

so 3 questions
1. Is VM-> EX-P the best product for me?

2.do i need to change (as in upgrade?) or other products will look similar to AIO, NXT?

3. If I use VM--> EX-P what can i top with to add durability? (or maybe that's enough?)
Same as NXT....can I top NXT?

I want it to last at least 3-4 months

I wash car about every two weeks wax with red EO wax as you dry

PS... I am not a pro ....doing these all by hand
I am driving Acura TSX PWP

Ive always had excellent results on metallic flake'd paint using Collinite 845. Both my car and my girlfriends focus have flake that explodes underneath 845. Not only that, 845 will by far exceed your durability expectations.

I like to use VM followed by EX-P and topped with Natty's original or ClearKote carnuba for light colored vehicles.
