There is no real easy answer to this, everyone has different things that they
like.  I personally don't use acrylics, I like enamels and lacquers, and 
generally spray using Dio-Sol as my thinner.  However, I have a friend who
builds fantastic models and swears by Pactra paints and their clear gloss
coat.  There are others I know that like to use Future floor wax.  I've tried
it with results that were acceptable.  The other evening at out local model
club meeting, one of the members was talking of using Future and showed some
results.  They looked pretty darn good.
 
My best suggestion to you, try them, and find out what YOU like the best.
The only way to get better at modeling is to experiment.  I consider every
model I build an experiment.  I like to try something new, whether its a 
new product, different technique, etc. on everything that I do.  Sometimes I
succeed, sometimes I don't succeed as well.  The quest is for what makes YOU
the best modeller that you can be, and that might be totally different than
what makes someone else good.

Happy modelling.
