CRUZMISL,
It depends on what color paint and what type of wax/sealant you are using. I have a jet black BMW and I seem to always use Souveran wax as a topper over a sealant like Poorboys EX.
I have tried EFCP, Platinum's QD, Griot's QD, CleatKote's Quick Shine and Pinnacle Crystal Mist. On my black paint, hands down Crystal Mist seems to be the best QD over a wax like Souveran or P21S. It produces more of a deep, liquid, wet shine.
On a sealant by it self - or on a light colored car - out of all the QD's I have tried so far, ClearKote's Quick Shine works the best for me. It produces more of a reflective shine.
I hope this helps.
Cheers,

Agree w/ Amp99 ... On a dark car that is already topped w/ carnauba, Crystal Mist is the best I've used, and I've used at least a dozen of 'em!
On light colors, though, EO or any Megs will bring out some metallic highlights quite well at a lower cost... i still use Crystal Mist on my light cars as it seems to replenish the carnauba.

I did a test today between CM, OGSO and QS and found that CM was sorely lacking in the feel good department. What's the feel good department you ask? :nixweiss That slick, silky feel I get from both OGSO and QS. The CM was included in my Forum Favorite kit I order from that auto geeky dot net place last fall. I had high hopes for all the stuff from Pinnacle, but CM, IMO is a big :down, along with their shampoo.
