i have tried mothers, meguiars(both professional and consumer grade) and a bunch other waxes. I think that the best bang for your buck is P21S concours carnuba wax. Goes on and off very easily and the shine is amazing.
it is a natural paste not a liquid so you will get more waxes out of it.

good luck

I've done Zaino and it works well. BUT I have also had really good luck with the Zymol. Plus it's way cheaper.

As soon as the weather gets nicer around here, I'm going to try out this new polish/sealant with my porter cable...Klasse. I'll let you all know how it turns out. Anyone on here try it yet?

I use meguiars clay system meguiars deep crystal paint cleaner meguiars deep crystal polish and then top it with 2-3 coats of meguiars nxt paste or liquid. I like the liquid much better, it looks much wetter, and is much deeper. My z has never looked better than when I use the above mentioned system in that order. My dads car gets meguiars gold class wash, turtle wax ice liquid polish, and then either meguiars cleaner wax or nxt liquid. Both cars are quick detailed with either turtle wax ice or nxt quick detail, My dads gets the turtle, and I use nxt. Cars have never looked better. My little bros mustang will be using the complete meguiars deep crystal system. Hes getting a graphite color I think. Im actually looking for wheel wax tips, what works what doesn't.

Before I clean the car down I always start with the wheels,
1) Give them a good squirt with lots of water to loosen all the grime using Car Shampoo to emulsify with soft sponge, rinsing sponge frequently to keep it clean.
2) Then gently clean preferably with a different soft sponge again, using a little bit of Turbo Wax - Wheel Cleaner & Brightener (no need to be heavy handed this stuff goes a long way) to remove if the rims are more grimey, don't forget to do in behind the spokes too, keeps your rims cleaner longer.
3) Then thoroughly rinse off, clean the car, then dry the whole lot, wheels included.
4) Use Turbo Wax Tire Care Gel, best applied carefully with a different sponge applicator, so you don't get excess in grooves. Goes on nicely this way, then you can do a 2nd coat once dry for that oober wet shine tyre.
5) Then Turbo Wax Spray n Wax, liquid wax on the rims. I sprayed the product onto a soft cloth and applied this way. Should keep your rims cleaner longer, especially the front rims that tend to get so grubby with brake dust.

Everyone has different ways of doing things. I find this always gives the show finish. Sorry if I sound like a Turbo Wax informercial, but the stuff is good.

I like to use Mother's Reflections Car Wax and Top Coat for full detailing.

Otherwise, it's Meguiar's NXT.

The NXT looks even better when the paint receives a pre-treatment with something like Adam's Brilliant Spray Glaze.
