Default Any advice on products??

Hey, very new to the whole car cleaning scene, I am currently doing up a Jaguar XJ6 and would love to get a nice deep wet look finish on the paint. I have googled a few times and think it goes like.... wash (2 bucket method with shampoo), clay (do you clay when car is wet?) dry, polish, wax. I will be polishing by hand.
Can someone recommend some products that will help achive what I want??

this is the car in question. The paintwork seems in pretty good condition. Just want a really deep shine.
Cheers!!

We try our best lol, and many thanks for the recent business - always much appreciated! On the Jag, the good news is that the paint will be intermediate in terms of hardness, so all of the detailed advice in this thread is relevant...

It gives you a routine to follow from start to finish, plus example images to whet your appetite...
