I used SRP and worked OK for me.

I know it only hides inperfections, but aslong as they are sealed afterwards, should be ok until you strip everything off and start again?

I went for;
Born to be mild             - shampoo
Bilt hamber                  - clay
BTBM again                  - shampoo
AG SRP                        - polish / filler
Poorboys wet look mirror - Glaze ?
Jetseal 109 x 2             - sealer
Collinite 845 x2             - wax

Then washed in BTBM shampoo next weekend and stuck another layer of the collinite stuff on..

Lots of work but shines and just needs quick rinse and dry to bring it all back, 3 weeks on, still shiny after just water..

I'd agree that Dodo are fantastic waxes (used most of them and it is all down to budget and colour as to which you choose) but I personally have not used JetSeal before.  It sounds a bit like overkill using both and I'd want to check first (if it was me) with Dodo that their wax will bond to a surface that has been JetSealed.  Some sealants like OptiSeal are fine to put before a wax but others like Nanolex are not.

Dodo waxes offer better durability if the paint if properly prepared with their Lime Prime pre wax cleaner.  2-3 coats of wax should keep your ride protected for several months.  I'd leave a day between coats to allow to cure. 

Hope this helps

jetseal is applyed for uv/contaminent protection and dodo waxs go over the top of it fine with no bonding issues;)
