polish first, then wax, but no need to polish it everytime as it takes a very tiny amount of paint off to bring up the finish. After you have polished it, might wanna put more than one layer of wax on to help protect the finish.

basically wash your car down using the two bucket method dry it off them give it a good polish then do all your trim while the polish is still on and them take the polish off and apply some wax then for about 3-5 weeks you shouldn’t need to polish the car just clean it due to the wax seals in the polish! And like people said ever time you polish it takes a fine layer of paint off! or as for wax use this stuff ....

Yeah i wax mine evry other time i wash it, and only polish it maybe twice a year. Relatively new car tho. On a slightly older one you may wish to polish it 3-4 times a year.

That P21S stuff is amazing, but do need a few coats!

Im undecided. At presnt i use both, layer of megs nxt, then two layers of p21s. But thats only when i have loads of time.

If im in a rush i use the p21s, think its easier to put on and take off.
