What kind of Wax do you all prefer?
I was wondering what kind of wax everyone here uses. I currently use meguirers tech wax and it does a phenoinal job. The only problem i have is that it does really last that long. I end up waxing my car evertime i wash it (which is like twice a week this summer). I really cant stand a dirty car. My family actually makes fun of me for how much time i spend cleaning and fixing my car. But anyways i just want to know if there were any durable waxes out there.
Also i would like to know what type of wax (paste, liquid) everyone perfers

I just did a treatment, with stuff I got from Autozone, I bought some Turtle Wax Platinum series, then followed with a coat of Meguiars Show Car glaze and topped both with a coat of Meguiars High Tech Yellow Wax, I'll see if I can't get some pics tommorow before I got to the cruise in. But I can tell you the difference is AMAZING. I had lots of small hairline scratches, now I have next to none. When I pull my tranny in a couple of weeks I'm gonna do the entire thing over except this time Clay bar first.

Zaino obviously, then theres over the counter stuff......Liquid Glass, which is easliy the best over the counter stuff, at least here in South Jersey. Zymol works nice on darker colors, but its tougher to spread when its applied. It gets kinda blotchy, you guys know what i mean.

Only stuff I've used extensively is the Original Green Turtle wax in the round tub and round sponge applicator- Wal-mart $2.30.
After a claybar and Turtle Wax, the car feels sooo incredibly smooth.

2 years ago, one car magazine, I forget which one, did about 50 different waxes and polishes to see which one was the best. They put it on, left it in the rain, the sun, everything for about 1 week. After that, they looked at the paint and felt it. The winner was P21S, which beat every other product, even Zaino which everyone thinks is the greatest stuff since sliced white bread. My dad got a can, and man, this stuff is friggen amazing. My car sits in the driveway, and for 1 week it repelled water and still had a great shine and smoothness to it. So, now I dont have to wash my car every week. I would def recommend buying this stuff, and giving it a shot. It puts Zaino to shame.
