Can we skip the cutting/polish step and just wax the car?

hi buddy, are you trying to remove the swirls by yourself or you want to know what causes swirls on your paint? i dont think there is possible to layer waxes on our paint as the 1st one counts, the 2nd one will only strip off your 1st layer and replace it. does this make sense to you? wax are not like dulux paint, jotun etc etc you can layer once they look faded or turn yellow-iish. try read this interesting post by KC2 http://www.zerotohundred.com/newforums/car-detailing-forums/370327-authorised-mxxxxxx-3-4-layers-coated-on-it-but-did-not-like-outcome.html hope it helps :proud:

I don't think it's a good idea. You must polish and wax. To maintain good paint, polish at least 6 monthly and wax at least biweekly.
