I have used TurtleWax polish with Teflon in it.

It works great with the finish of my car but it is a POLISH not a wax.
My mistake was that I thought "Trutle Wax" meant "wax" when I first
started using it on my last car.  It gave an awesome finish (no swirls, glossy finish)
but removed a little paint each time.  After about 40 uses of the stuff, it took
off most of the paint on my car and the primer started to show through.
I wouldn't reccomend using this brand more than 2 times a year.  But the
results are showroom finish quality.  I use Carnuba wax regularly though.

BTW I don't know if the Teflon part has anything to do with the smooth finish.
