getting a shiny look to my car

hi everyone, my question this time is about getting the car to be as shiny as possible. i get my car in december last year, so it has been through one winter, and about 2-3 weeks ago i put on a coat of meguiar's gold class clear coat, my car looks good to me but i sometimes wonder if there are ways to make a little more shiny, what others steps can i take?

In my opinion, the best thing you could do would be to polish first (Dupont No. 7 is a very good polish) and then use a good wax (Megiuars should work well) or a glaze. Some liquid glazes I have used make the car look like water, but they're expensive and dont last as long as wax.

By the way foxy, the clay bar is good and it also removes imperfections in the paint which is as close to a full buff job as possible. The paint will be very smooth too.
