Default Best Spray Wax?

What's the best spray wax you guys use? Just for something after a quick wash to get a nice shine going. I've been using the turtle wax spray its pretty good actually I was kinda surprised. Do you guys use any and if so which?

He's talking about spray wax, not QD you naggers.

Meguiar's spray wax v2. is pretty good, it'll still be working on my car after a month's worth of weather. It's the stuff that smells like grape and makes you want to drink it.

I realized that after I posted.

That should be fine for starting out, I would just add a LC white pad to it, the porter cable one seemed kind of shitty to me.

Better yet, get the tangerine, and don't mix it up with the orange pad that kit comes with, haha.

I've been using poor boy's polishes lately, but don't really see a different through different brands. The pads have a lot to do with it, and the RPM. If I ever get back into polishing I'm probably going to swap the porter cable for a rotary, they work much, much faster.

Yea I was planning to get an LC blue pad and some Poorboys liquid wax to go with that package. You have been doing this long enough to use a rotary I wouldn't want to touch a car with one yet. lol I'm sure they are fast though.
