Plexus for the 3M clear and tint, its an amazing product!
Zymol Glasuer for Black Pcar paint.
I have used most of the quick detailers and find all to be about the same, it depends on the amount of gloss you are looking for.
Here is a big hint, the more you touch your paint the more swirling you will have.
I try not to touch it and it looks awesome!

Like many detail nuts out there, I've tried a ton of detailing products over the years. There are two recent standouts in my collection.. Meguiar's Ultimate Quik Wax and Adam's Detail Spray.
For a spray wax, Ultimate Quik Wax is excellent.. it's applies easily, looks great and lasts. It beads really well, even after a rainstorm or two and multiple washes. I've only used it as a topper (there's a base coat of another sealant underneath it), but it can be used as a stand-alone product. It's nearly as good as Zaino Z8, but half the money. Of course, any wax/sealant's performance is limited by the paint's condition. The better the prep (cleaning, polishing, etc.), the better the results. Meguiar's also makes UQDetailer.. it's a good QD, but not great, IMO.
Other favorite sealants: DuraGloss AquaWax (also a spray and durable). As a base coat, lately I've used either Zaino Z-AIO (it's also a paint cleaner) or Jeff's Werkstat Acrylic Jet (no cleaning ability).
Favorite Carnauba Waxes (nice for dark colors): I like Collinite #845.. inexpensive, looks good and durable. More expensive stuff.. Pinnacle Souveran or P21S.
Over to detail sprays.. I just bought Adam's Detail Spray - it's as good as people say. It's great on glass and paint - super slick, no streaks and it cleans well (removes bugs pretty easily, too). It also smells pretty good, like bubble gum. It's not a cheap QD, but it's good stuff.
Other QD favorites.. Clearkote Quik-Shine, Finish Kare #425 and, for an over-the-counter product, Mother's Showtime.
