I rarely see high carnauba content waxes in liquid form. Those carnauba pastes give you the wettest shine but don't last long unless your car is garaged. Dark/deep colors seem to look better with carnauba paste waxes. Mettalics like silver do equally well with a synthetic which come either liquid wax like Meguairs NXT or a synthetic paste. I favor the liquids like you for this reason. My car is parked outdoors these days so I need the durability of the synthetic. I top with a polymer spray like Finish Kare #425 which keeps the paint surface super slick like teflon for dust to roll off. The towel will glid right acrross the hood if you throw it.
