recently I have used turtle wax ICE and really like it. Not to say it will be the best... With the turtle wax ICE water beads up very nicely and easily till the next wash

I use Meguiars, really good even when you want to do little touch ups in between washes, use that with a detailer.

Optimum Spray wax is not hype! The stuff rocks. Bought it on the recommendation of one of the detailers on this forum and couldn't be happier. The stuff lasts as long as regular wax but goes on so easy I use it after every few washes...maybe once a month. Very nice gloss and the bottle goes a long way. I'm on the same bottle I bought two years ago.

Garage One Pro Speed Wax

Personal friend in Tampa. My next door neighbor's brother's company. Been to the home shop in person and used it for multiple car shows that I have won trophies for best in class.....AND I HAVE SILVER PAINT. Can clean and shine everything from windows to paint to wheels to trim. Spent tons of money and hours with chemists to develop their products. Try it out it is purple with a grape smell SIMPLY AMAZING STUFF THE BEST I HAVE EVER USED.

Optimum Spray Wax is great stuff, easily one of my favorite spray waxes since it is very easy to use, has great durability (2-4 months in my experience), and leaves the car's paint feeling very slick.

However, I have been using Meguiar's Ultimate Quick Wax a fair amount recently and it is also a very good product. The advantage it has over Optimum is that it can be used in the sun without streaking.

Late to the party, but I've been using Eagle One Wax-as-u-dry for a couple of years and love it. Just don't use too much or you'll get streaks.

I've got to say Optimum Spray Wax is great.

Prima Hydro is also a good one.
