I've used Finish First Polish for a couple of years with great success, even applying six coats to the Pilot in July of 2002. It's a synthetic, and is very easy to use. This summer, I discovered Eagle One "Wax as U Dry," and was so impressed with the results and ease of use, that I switched over to the polish, wash, and quick detailer as well.

I've used the Meguiar's Mirror Glaze #20 Polymer Sealant for many years. Easy on, easy off and relatively long lasting. YMMV

Has anyone tried the Mr. Clean wax that requires absolutely no drying?

Have you used it yet, or just asking about it?

I haven't used it and have become a very loyal Zaino fan. However, it would be nice if you could use something like that the odd time without it harming the underlying Zaino products. I am assuming that they wouldn't work back and forth.
