Detailing my Alza sucks my life out

The Alza is such a huge car, well, larger in area compare to my previous Honda City, it takes the life out of me to shine the car.  I started with the Jusco Selection Wash and Shine with the micro fibre sponge to get the dirt out.  After washing, comes the drying.  Getting the car dry is truly difficult, especially at the door handle, side mirror and the back bonnet, which seams to have endless stream of water droplets coming out of hiding every few minutes.  Then I apply a coat of wax and by the time I am done with the entire car, the first section that I applied already dry and I started to buff it off.  40 minutes later, I am totally beat, both my arms are sore and I had not an ounce of energy in me to continue.  The following morning, I dust off the car with a feather duster and applied the FormaHero Deep Gloss Silicone Sealant.  I sprayed the liquid silicone and wipe it evenly.  I allow the silicone to cure in the sun for 20-30 minutes, turning the car as this was early morning sun.  Then I buff the silicone off to a nice shine.

The result, excellent Classy Purple Metallic shine.  On the way to Ipoh, the car turn heads, I am not sure if it was the shine or its purple Alza, and I am glad someone appreciate it.  The FormaHero Deep Gloss Silicone Sealant claim that the shine would last for months, lets see how long it last.  My expectation on this product is an easy clean off after rain or after wash off, the shine still remains.  Its now raining season, so best to test out this product.
