I'm not a big fan of mother's carnuaba gold, I bought some but wasn't impressed. I feel that the best shine I've gotten is from Meguiars gold class liquid.
and turtle wax extreme 2001 is better than extra shine amour all. try it you'll see.

I know after paint and wet sand, meguires diamond cut compound really cuts buffing time!

Their glaze (before wax) works great to hide any swirl marks.

I never used their wax although i'm sure I wouldn't be dissapointed.

MEQUIARS SUCKS! Anyone who likes it either hasn't tried anything else or put multiple coats on their car!!

Turtle Wax works wonders but is a bit more difficult than others to put on!

My favorite is 3M waxes!!
