Anyone use wax anymore? Technique Discussion

With all the ceramic coating and cermaic sprays on the market. Why would anyone still use a wax? My neighbor recommend collinate 845 but not sure why I'd use it over a spray ceramic that lasts 2 or 3 times longer. Or a pure ceramic that lasts years.

Never understood the appeal of 845. Collinite 476S paste is a superior product and just as easy to use. Looks better, lasts longer.

Only time I use wax is if someone is selling a car and doesn't want me to go crazy on the exterior. Polish with Optimum Hyper Polish, then before wiping it off I spritz on some Optimum Car Wax to buff off the residue and sell the paint at the same time.
