Due to the oils in all carnauba waxes, I would say that all carnaubas will be less slick than pretty much all synthetics, as a rule. The oils actually do a little of the opposite of slickness, hence the dust attraction with carnaubas vs. the dust repellency with many synthetics.

Either Zaino alone or something similar (like Epic) would be the slickest. And yes, as kenchan pointed out, topping any synthetic with Slick would create an even slicker surface.

So, if you're already using Zaino and like it anyway then I would continue to use it for slickness. Then, for additional slickness, top the Zaino with Prima Slick.
