Zaino is THE BEST sealant you can buy. I use Zaino products and love them.
It seems a lot of BMW-ers use Zaino products.

Can you recommend a wash and a spray (for the plastic)?
The first wash should be with a dish soap to cleanse the paint and strip any dealer waxes. Then you can use any high quality auto soap after that. I use the Zaino wash, but there are many good brands. Meguiars is actually pretty decent.
As for black trim, anything by Einszeitt, Lexol or Wurth will be good.
