IMHO, Teflon® added to any wax or polish is just hype and has no real benefit for either shine, protection, slickness, or durability. Tenneco Automotive is actually making the Dupont™ car care line.

I use Meguiars Polish AND Wax....

The trick is to use micro-fiber rags to remove the product, and to make sure that NO DUST is on the surfaces when you either apply or remove the polish or wax.

Looks okay to me.
