CG is good. A buddy of mine actually works for them and designs some of their products. He gives me free CG all the time. but even he admits not EVERY CG product is the best or even his favorite for some things. he uses other brands depending on what the application is. But overall I find CG to be nice and easy to work with.

Right now I'm on a turtle wax ceramic spray kick though. I might layer on some wax on top of it, Collinite 845--the strongest wax known to mankind.

Turtle Wax ceramic coating is also my preference, not only because it leaves a very durable shine, but is inexpensive, readily available (Walmart for instance), easy to apply and remove, repels water when on windows and can be used on all exterior trim.

^Yep i was surprised at how easy it is to apply. The instructions say you should buff off but i never found it necessary to buff off as it wipes off clean. It does seem somewhat prone to very light smearing particularly on a dark color car where you can see it but I found simply turning over the towel or using a new towel after you saturate one towel helps mitigate this.
