Jumping right in!
I also own a white pearl car, and I do agree with mike that the color shines even more with little to no defects. I also found jeweling the paint with menzerna po85rd pops the color even more. As for maintenance I also am a junkie for cleaning items. I usually clay the car using meguiar's claybar as often as once a week or two. Place I live got heavy, dirty, polluted environment, so I add extra paint cleaning routine with pinnacle cleansing lotion once a month. IMO sealants doesn't work out pretty well on my car. They tends to darken and mute the cyrallic beads after a few days.
Although I sometimes like to put on prima's hydroseal, wolfgang dgps 3.0, I prefer spray sealants/qds. Tried many products, and found out opt instant detailer, pinnacle crystal mist, wolfgang deep gloss spritz sealant, carpro's reload, meguiar's last touch, blackfire wet diamond polymer spray are the most 'suitable' products for me. I tried to avoid products with too much polymer/silicone.
For carnauba wax I just love the clean n glossy look of chemical guys's celeste dettaglio. Swissvax's glacier also works wonder, only harder to apply (sv waxes tend to chalk up on the pad).
I also recommend blackfire rinseless wash to maintain the in-between washes. This product is oh-so-awesome and can be dilluted for qd/clay lubricant as well.
