Default Spray On Wax

How do the spray on waxes compare to the traditional variety? Is there a particular brand of spray on wax that you would recommend? Not too many of the "wash and wax wackos" seem to use the spray on variety of wax: is there a reason for this?

Thank you for the input!

I like to use a spray wax between full details to keep a fresh gloss. I prefer Prima hydro to anything else. It leaves a great slick feeling and nice gloss. I've also used einszett spray wax, which was ok. Not nearly as good as prima though.

Prima hydro
Bring out shine even to a white car with no more wax on it.

How would you use Prima Hydro (a "wax as you dry" spray) with Optimum No Rinse (ONR)? Would you wet the car with ONR and then put on the wax while the car is still wet? Would the ONR interfere with the spray on wax? Or would you wash with ONR, wipe dry, re-wet the car with regular water and then put on the spray wax? I apologize in advance if this is a silly question!

Wash the car as you normally would. Dry. Use spray on wax similar method to quick detailer.

I don't think all spray on waxes have to be used as you dry the car.

I've used Megs spray wax, leaves a nice glossy finish. I use it on my Sazuka Blue every other week to keep it looking like it was just full blown detailed. Seems to work wonderfully on top of Zaino Z2.

3rd for Prima Hydro. Great maintenance wax. You can do it as you dry the car, but also apply it when the car is dry, it works both ways. I would also pick up Prima Slick for those touch up jobs after a short drive.
