Out of these three which one is the best?
I currently use Klasse AIO + Klasse Sealant Glaze. I'd like to finish it off with a pure carnauba wax...
The three products I can pick up locally are
3M Paste Wax
Meguiars #26
or Mother's Pure Carnauba
Or if there's one you could suggest, I need one with no cleaners/abrasives in it.

You are gonna get lots of different replies on this, but I have been using Pinnacle Souveran. I have used it on top of AIO as well as a couple of different polishes with great results. As others will tell you, its all about what you do before you put the wax on. I take it you are talking about what to use on the Camaro? Car color will make a difference in responses.

On my Torch Red Avanti I use a base coat of Griot's Carnauba Wax Stick followed by Pinnacle Souveran...absolutely striking results. The Pinnacle is pricey but worth it.
On my Riverside Gold '69 427/435 I use the Griot's Wax Stick followed by Griot's Best of Show Wax...excellent and satisfying results. The car looks like it's been dipped in lucite the finish looks so deep.
All waxes will protect but not all are equal in that regard. The color of the car makes a difference in which wax gives the best finish. It may take some experimentation to find which you like best.

Megs. #26 should do the trick for you given the choices you have provided.

I love P21s, its alot like the Pinnacle, but a bit cheaper at around 30 bucks a jar. Makes the car look wet, easy on and off.

On my old Z28 which was a similar color to yours (Polo Green Metallic), Souveran gave it a look that nothing else could touch...
But if I had to pick out of those three, I would go with #26. It's a great wax, but apply thin and be careful around trim pieces or you'll be sorry
