Buff and wax is probably a one step polish and seal

All have good thoughts.

I would think it would be more accurate for detailers to atleast catagorize it as a "paint enhancement" as compared to a buff and wax. To me paint enhancement even sounds better, more accurate. Atleast that is how i have corrected a couple folks on it when they have inquired about having thier vehicle "buffed and waxed".

I really just try to be honest with folks and educate them on the products and processes in simple ways, not using fluffy terms and crap...so they in the end know what they are spending there money on.

These terms for the public don't really bother me, because they're easy to explain.

The most annoying term for me is "one step". It's interchangeable with both a cleaner wax and a polish step.

I use the term "polishing wax" in my menu.

At work, when the boss says give it a one step and a coating, he always uses Adam's One Step, or Meguiar's D166. He thinks a simple alcohol wipe will remove it, buy it takes about three to get the paint squeaky clean.

What the boss means is polish and coat. Very frustrating for management.

That’s got to be rough if your team doesn’t even use the same nomenclature
