Question Quik wax questions

I'm looking to get a Quik Wax but given the choices around I'm not sure which one to go for.

I was looking at the Meguiars QW but then AutoGlym released their AquaWax and then theres Turtle Wax with their F21 that I've heard good things about.

What does everyone think?

I'm planning on using it weekly as the final step in my wash routine

Can I suggest something other than what you have listed?

Optimum Car Wax $30

Has to be one of the best spray on wipe off waxes available IMHO.

Duragloss Aquawax or Pinnacle Spray Wax from www.waxit.com.au would be my pick.

Thanks guys for the info. The main reason I limited myself to the 3 sprays initially was I knew I could get them all at the local autoparts store.

Most of the others I'd never heard of before.

Thanks MRJUCY for the info regarding waxit.com.au and DoreSlamR for the backup. I checked out both and after reading the info on the 'Pinnacle Spray Wax' I think I'll go in that direction. That stuff really sounds awesome.

AFAIK autoglym takes the polymer straight off european cars and is not a wax at all? sure it might feel nice afterwards, but isn't that the raw paint???
