Keep brake dust of rims
i've tried 3 synthetics: zaino z1/z2, nxt, and rain x wax (not the special rain x wheel stuff.)
when fresh they all seem to make the dust easier to remove, with the nxt and rain x i think (unscientifically) a little better than the zaino.
all last about the same for me, a month.
the zaino and nxt give a similar "high shine" look, while the rain x looks a little like a "depth" carnuba in that you can sort of look through the clearcoat more than the others.
tha rain x is the easiest to use, since you can apply it right after washing with the wheels still wet. the zaino is the hardest, since you can't get the sweeping stroke to apply it in a thin layer like you can on the body (where i still use it with great satisfaction.)
