I've used CGs Butter Wax and everyone here has pretty much summed it up. I use it for people who bring me their car right before taking it for a trade-in on a new car.

Sure wish the durability was better, I was lookin at some pics of cars with this wax. Well now I think I will try some Clearkote Moose Wax and FK 1000 or FK Pink Wax.

Is it the Clearkote Moose Wax or the Clearkote Carnauba Wax that is similar to the Butterwax?

I'm sure it has to be carnauba wax since (as you know)moose wax is just a cleaner wax.

Yes that's the one ,the moose wax is a cleaner wax but instead I it I would rather use Vanilla moose to clean and top it with RMG(Red moose machine Glaze) and top that with Carnauba moose wax which as you said wears like a sealant ,lasts at least 4 months if not more ,the only thing is it darkens the paint and I stopped using it because of that .

I bought a gallon of this stuff and it is super easy to use. As others have mentioned, it doesn't last very long but it's so easy to use that you won't mind doing another coat.

I've shared with a number of friends and they all seem to like it too.

I'm glad this thread was resurected. I just got 16 oz of Adam's Butter wax to try out. Now that I know it doesn't last that long I'm not sure what I want to test it out on. Maybe this:

It isn't a bad wax! Give it a try... I have some pretty lazy friends who said they would wax much more often because it was so easy to use -- maybe use it to top a synthetic glaze?
