My wife and I have used many, but keep coming back to Zaino. Actually, we tried many before. Once we used Zaino we never went to anything else.

Hey Nikon if that is anything like the old meguires system you might have to use a pure carnuba wax after it just to give the paint a little more shine. Most of your cleaner waxes I think are for removing heavy oxidation. But its been a long time since I have used a 3 part system if this is even that.

Yeah, I wouldn't use a cleaner unless you have oxidation issues. I generally use the good 'ol can of Turtle Carnauba.

If you want something not as nice as a "real wax", but not terrible either - and certainly more durable - NuFinish is pretty good stuff. Just a warning, though. Do NOT get it on plastic bits. If you do - make sure to clean it off immediately.

I let some sit on some plastic for a day before I went back to it - wow. 1 hour later w/ mineral spirits, I finally managed to get a 5"^2 area cleaned off. Needless to say, I at least knew the stuff was durable.
