What wax works best for you?

Pretty simply question. I'm looking for feedback, what wax have you used that work best for you. I just did my nose cap yesterday using Meguiar's car wax, and was going to be moving on to the sides and back. I'm always open to hear of something better.

Qualities I'm interested in--

* Ability to hide small scratches.
* Longevity - how long does it hold up before you do it again?
* Average drying time from application to wipe off in your particular climate.
* Any other comments you may have as far as like/dislike.
* Price is not a factor - lets face it, these rigs cost a heck of a lot more than a bottle of wax.

    The manufacturers of the 3-rigs I have owned have all specified to use a quality marine/rv wax. So while a good car wax is better than no wax, IMHO and at least the 3-mfg's. I have spoken with, you would be better served going to a marine and or rv wax for better protection. MeGuiar's is a quality wax, car or marine/rv. I have used Meguiars Flagship marine wax for years and have been quite happy with the ease of application and the longevity. In reality you are pretty safe to go with any of the name brands as they should be pretty close in protective capability. Also the manufacturer of my new rig has also suggested using Protect All which I may try. A lot of folks speak of it's super easy application and protective capabilities. Worth a try.
