Good question.
All have worked quite well for me and I can't say that I noticed any real difference.
I haven't used the PwC as much as the other two since I use sealants a lot. I was always a little concerned about the carnauba content affecting the bonding of a sealant. Many people have used it with a sealant, but I never felt comfortable with that. It did work great as a cleaner prep for a carnauba wax.

Re: choosing polish

I'm going to pick up menzerna sip and 106ff, along with a few other things, I'm just wondering why detailcityshop doesn't carry clearkote? now I may have to pay two shipping fees.
