Aw, C'mon C, don't hold back give us your REAL opinion.
Although I would have to agree, NuFinish is fine if you are about to wax a 1988 Maxima, but I would be leery about using it on my car.

NuFinish should be used for one thing and one thing only, removing scratches.
If they start making QD and waxes, I don't care, that's not I would buy their products for. If you want to try something else try out FK1 #425, this is some amazing stuff. One small pump and you can buff a whole body panel! No shit
I just order some Eimann Fabrik Clear Pearls QD, which is a carnauba based, something I dont' really use very often but I will def be letting everyone know how it goes.
I also got some other goodies that I'll be hopefully showing off

Kaiten, aren't there better products for scratches on our cars as well? I have never had a high opinion of NuFinish to be gin with, but I am really not comfortable using it on my E60. There's Meguiar's SwirlX and I am sure there are other's even better. You know more about the care products for our cars, maybe you can suggest a spray wax that'll be good for between full waxings?

I am going to give this stuff a try:
http://www.detailedimage.com/Dodo-Juice-M3...P329/250-ml-S1/
I have tried the Zaino Grand finale spray, and still have most of a bottle. It is GOOD stuff, but have used the Dodo juice products that last two times and they are amazing, figured I would give this stuff a try.

@pjinca: Depends on if you want to buy some products at your local shop or online. Locally, you could probably pick up some good Meg's polish/scratch removers at O'Reilly's (check in the painting section, not the car cleaning section, that's where they hide the good stuff).
If you were to go online, I could recommend alot of things, but it depends on your budget. For something priced about right for us I would suggest some Poorboy's SSR1 or SSR2. If you want to step it up, try out some Optimum compounds/polishes. They work really well, and leave the paint with a really nice shine rather than dulling it like some compound/polishes do.
And for the spray wax, again locally your best bet would be some Aquawax from Duragloss (kinda hard to find, but really good stuff, trying checking at Napa I hear they sell it), but if your going to order online then I would suggest Finish Kare #425 (www.fk1usa.com).
I am getting a shipment in of some Eimann Fabrik Clear Pearls II quck detailer, I'll be sure to let you guys know how it goes. I have high hopes for it, it's a really great brand that doesn't have much publicity b/c it's only sold on one website.
@FSTASNZ: I've never used the Dodo brand before so I can't comment really, but @ $14 for only 8oz of that stuff it doesn't seem like a very good deal. You can get a 31oz. bottle of FK1 #425 for $15 and that sh*t will last a LOOOONG time. It spreads so much and leaves the car slicker than a stripper's ass

Damn! That's a hell of a deal
Yeah the U.S. distributor went out of business for FK so people from autopia have been in touch with the manufacturer. The price I got was $20/gallon. Not sure what shipping is yet but regardless cheaper than $29 being charged by the former distributor.
