ah right its just that wax is more commonly applied by hand an buffed off by machine than polish
but anyway what i use for my car is blackfire compound polish for removing swirls etc (i use this with a machine an best applied this way) and then i also use blackfire finishing polish
the two black bottles nearest the megs gold class
