I use meguiars gold class paste and like it. I know we used turtle wax hard shell paste on my dad's 04 yukon that sits outside all year and it was still beading up nice after a year.

Eh, all Carnuba's are that way. It's a trade off really... You either get a phenomenal DEEP liquid shine out of a carnuba that only last a month or two, or you settle a little bit and go with a polymer glaze, sealant that gives a year of protection...

I, personally, will only use Carnuba's... I don't mind waxing the car more often.

I don't trust any product out to a full year, not for a daily driver at least.

But not all nuba's are like that. There are few that go on smooth AND come off smooth.

No I was saying that none of them last very long. I agree with the application and removal of the P21S... I really like it.

Believe it or not they sold out of the 25 they were selling at 30k a pop but hey it's a lifetime supply.lol.

What are you washing the car with? That could be stripping off your wax too. I've been using ice, california gold, and something I can't remember the name of because its too expensive to buy very often for a car wash soap lol.
I use the Zymol Carbon also and at $42 a jar it's not to bad a price but I just recently upped to there Concours Estate glaze which goes on and off very easily.

Don't rely on wax for filling in marring. It can be done, but IMO better, more durable results are achieved if you throw on a glaze and top that with whatever wax. If I were working your car, I'd throw some Danase Wet Glaze on it.
