Out of curiosity, what polish did you apply that you feel you have to wax over? Typically, most "polishes" these days (like Zaino) are called polishes only because they don't contain any carnuba wax. You don't apply a wax over a polish.

I use Meguiars products..

A polish polishes and the wax protects.

Well, like I said, it depends what products you're using, which is why I asked. Zaino is a "polish", but you don't put wax over it.
