That being said.. Zymol Vintage Glazes contain the highest carnauba content, but they can cost you an arm and a leg.
We swear by P21S wax and Menzerna FMJ (polymer sealant). It really depends what kind of finish you are looking for. Waxes have a nice deep glow... synthetic polymers make the paint look wet and brilliant. In addition to this... most waxes will get you 1-2 months of protection with one coat.. Menzerna's FMJ sealant will yield you 6-9 months of protection with one coat.
Some comparisons:

Well said...it's all in the prep work. However, if prepped properly, you will notice a difference between a higher quality wax and a cheaper one. But more importantly, it's not the day of the detail that's important. The reason higher quality waxes demand a higher price is due to how the car will look 10, 20, 30 washes later.
