Default Favorite wax?

Currently I have been using NXT 2.0 wax and it looks good and goes on easy but I feel like at least for me it doesn't come off really all that easy and it leaves like white flakes everywhere. So I'm looking at getting something else and trying it out. But I was wating to see what everyone's opinions are. What are all of your favorite waxes? I'm looking for something that gives a nice wet look.

I like the NXT 2.0. If it's not coming off easily, then you still have too many contaminants in your paint.

Time to clay, compound and polish first.

I actually like the meguiars nxt gen 2.0. You may be over applying the wax too. All you really need is a nice thin coat to apply, and go section by section. For example on wax, only do up to two surfaces (trunk and driver side, or rear and passanger side) once it begins to haze, remove the wax. spray detailers help remove the residue too.

I use all meguiars waxes, the paste version of the nxt gen 2.0 is my favorite. Unfortunately its been discontinued for the ultimate paste.
