Bambino Don,
if you are waxing your car once a weak you are doing it far too often.
Waxing should be limited to once a month, a little less frequently if you are using an acrylic paste wax. I use FK1 High Temp 1000P and I think I can easily get two months out of it. If you want to maintain the highest possible shine after a wash use a quick detail spray like Aqua Wax from duragloss.com, or z8 from Zaino or 1Z Lackfinish. I follow this up with a once over of FK1 425 which creates a teflon like barrier.

For a silver car I'm not really big on the carnauba waxes like S100 and P21s.
I think those waxes are better for reds and blacks. Carnaubas are used to add depth and you don't really get that with silver.
