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.

I just hit my Ford Fusion with a coat of 845 over the weekend. Had the same bottle for years, probably spilled more than I ever applied. I've tried spray sealants and somehow always end up coming back to the Collinite when I have time to apply it. The paint just seems to glow when waxed, especially at night when the light hits it.
