I say yes it not only last longer, but significantly longer!

If you were to look at 100% pure carnuba, it would be hard as a brick. You couldn't do anything with it. That's why carnuba makes such a great protectant. In order to be able to use it for protecting your paint, you must introduce chemicals into it so that you can spread it on a surface. The more you thin the carnuba content, the cheaper it will cost you to manufacture a product because you can spread the carnuba over more bottles of product. If you don't thin the carnuba as much, then the cost of your product will increase drastically because you will need more carnuba within the manufacturing process and carnuba is not cheap!

The more carnuba content that a product contains, the harder the product will be because it is the amount of carnuba that gives a paste wax its consistency. That my friend is why the price differs so drastically. Americana contains way more carnuba than the Buttery Wax and will last significantly longer. More carnuba equals better and longer lasting protection.

Now Viral, I don't expect you to change brands within this lifetime but I also cannot expect a unbiased side by side comparison from you either. You are obviously biased by saying that Zaino is better than Adam's. I say something totally different. I say that side by side, you can't tell the difference between two cars that have been treated with either product. The only difference that I know of for a fact is that the application process is totally different between the two and that Adam's has a 110% money back guarantee. We may not agree about who's shine is better, but do you agree about the application and guarantee?
