    There is some wisdom in this approach.....if you're really relying on the cutting ability of the polish component, so I can see there being a debate. If your approach and combination gave you the results you're looking for, and they look very nice in the pics, more power to you.

    Having been 'neglected' since October it was in no shape for just a wash & wax, the paint needed cleaned first. And since IMO it passed the 'baggie test,' all it needed was a good polishing with a light polish or cleaner wax. In this case, the TW Polish & Wax fit the bill perfectly. Especially since Turtle Wax designed the P&W to be a base layer for their Ceramic and Graphene spray sealants.

    I usually only polish the car once a year in the Spring and apply the Ceramic or Graphine monthly (or more LOL). Two years ago this is how I kept my car up and it got through an Ohio winter really well - on the top surfaces, the sides took a beating, but even after all that, with the first wash of the Spring, the water was still sheeting off the paint. Not great, but noticeably better than bare paint would.

    So this combination & method definitely gave me the results I was looking for.
