Lets see which wax I got:
Meguiars Carnuba Wax
Eagle One Wax-As-you-Dry
Eagle One WET
Turtle Wax Ultra Gloss
Meguiar NXT
Meguiars Cleaner/Wax
Wax-As-You-Dry, NXT, and Cleaner/wax are the best they are all very smooth. Wax as you dry is actually very smooth considering how you apply it and how it looks. It is SO easy and it's smooth. NXT smells good, easy to apply and take off and is smooth and shiney. The Cleaner/wax is good, but I don't want to use it as it is a cleaner too.
Turtle wax ultra gloss was greasy, I kept getting smear marks on it no matter how many times I tried to buff it out :mad: I used it once and want to get rid of it.
Eagle One Wet is smooth and shiney, but it leaves some white residue when you wipe it off and you need water to keep the pad damp to apply it.
Carnuba wax isn't very smooth.
NXT has some polish in it, so you don't get swirl marks, just like WET from Eagle one. I don't get swirl marks from Wax as you dry either because I'm not using any applicator or anything. I LOVE this wax. But every month or so, I would use a "real" wax. Then every wash in between I would use wax as you dry.
I've washed my car a few weeks back and used turtle wax ultra gloss, Wax-As-You-Dry, NXT, WET, and the carnuba wax. From now on, I only use NXT and Wax as you dry.1999 Pewter Camaro M5<br />Y87 Performance Package, Sport Appearance Package, Diamond Clears<br />Factory SS Hood, Free Ram Air Mod, Whisper Lid w/ K&N Air Filter<br />CarSound Cat 94009, B&B Tri-Flo w/ Quad Tips<br />BMR SFC, BMR STB, KVR Blank Rotors, Hawk HPS Pads<br />Black Painted Calipers w/ CAMARO Decal, 245/50 Dunlop SP Sport 5000<br />20% Rear 35% Side Tint, Red Reflective Inlays, Invincishield<br /><b>Young girls avert their eyes, weak men tremble, Ford dealers faint.</b>

I use NXT, coming from gold class. I'm not going to anything else short of Zaino when I finally get it. When you think about it, Zaino is actually cheaper, considering you have to apply it, what, once every 6 months? NXT = 15$/pop, etc. I usually re-wax every few washes, there's nothing like a newly waxed car [img]smile.gif[/img] .<b>1996 Camaro Z28 M6 Convertible</b> Not stock (<a href=\"http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2055334\" target=\"_blank\">Cardomain</a>) <i>(Wrecked, 3/4/06)</i><br /><b>1995 Camaro 3.4L</b> (<a href=\"http://www.cardomain.com/ride/602057\" target=\"_blank\">Cardomain</a>) <i>(Sold, 8/05)</i>

Rain-x Ultra Wax
I like it. But you have to polish or claybar before you put it on, cuz it just goes over anything on your paint.UAH FSAE<br />Chief Engineer<br /> <a href=\"http://chargermotorsports.com\" target=\"_blank\">http://chargermotorsports.com</a> <br /> <a href=\"http://members.cardomain.com/camaronat\" target=\"_blank\">http://members.cardomain.com/camaronat</a>

I'm gonna be ordering some Klasse All-in-one polish and Pinnacle Souvereign Carnuba in a few weeks to try out. Been reading some detailing forums and found many show car peeps that swear by it (even over Zaino, which I was originally gonna invest in). Anyone tried that combo out?AIM: Alientr8tr<br /><a href=\"http://www.cardomain.com/memberpage/583450\" target=\"_blank\">1998 Camaro 3.8L</a><br />Flowmaster 80-series, !FRA, Eibach Springs, KYB AGX, SLP sway bars, 3.42/LSD, Wings West kit, Z06 Motorsports, Silverstone Metallic paint<br /><a href=\"http://www.shift5.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Shift 5</a> - My Band

zymol.. for off the shelf parts shop stuff is the best IMHO
it is a PITA to get off but if you acctualy follow the directions its bearable.. and gives a *****in' shine
I have tried most of the others listed and have not been impressed..
otherwise I use a mix of megiers and 3m profesional products.. when I have it to use, on occasion I forget to order it and get my zymol on..

WolfGang is the best, better than Zaino in my opinion. before that it was NXT(Hated it, because of the 15-20 mintues wait time, not good in the florida weather, Also hated the stickyness of the towel during taking off the polish), Eagle one WET, Liquid Glass(my second choice, if I couldn't get Wolfgang, it would be liquid Glass)1996 Firebird<br />Wolfgang Polish--the best<br />working on Project Phoenix
