Sealants are definitely the way to go. I have been detailing cars for many years and have tried just about every product on the market. Not talking about what you get at your local Auto Zone or Wal-Mart either. Sealants are not like your typical wax as they are made of polymers that bond to your paint when applied.
Sealants are FAR more durable and last way longer than your typical carnuba wax. Carnuba waxes last weeks, where as sealants can last months. Some can and will last up to a year.
If your looking for long lasting protection, and don't want to be waxing your car once a month, then sealants are your best bet.
Another big plus about sealants is that they are very easy to apply and remove, where as allot of waxes can be very finicky.
One of the absolute best sealants on the market is
Klasse high gloss sealant glaze. One coat of this stuff and your set for as long as a year depending on how much you wash your car.
Other great sealants out there are
Wolfgang deep gloss paint sealant, Blackfire wet diamond, Chemical Guys Jet seal 109, Optimum Poly-Seal, and Poorboys EX-P pure sealant.
All of those listed above will give you superior protection for up to 4-6 months. Also all of the products i listed can be found at this very awesome website

Autogeek.net has tons of information and has just about all of the top products on the market for car detailing.
One last thing. There is one carnuba wax on the market that can last as long as sealants, and is one of my personal favorites. It is
Collinite liquid insulator wax #845, or Collinite #476. This stuff right here is absolutely amazing! It can also be found at Autogeek.net.
Hope this helps...
