wax vs. polish
Now, what is better for an 06 X5 in Silver, wax or polish and why. Then if 1 is better than the other, which is the best brand? Thanks in advance for your time and mine! CHEERS |

Polish makes the paint look better/shinier, wax protects it. For best results polish then wax.

Wax is kind of a sealant. Comes in the end of polish process.

Correct
Polish - will remove light swirls/light scratches Polish gives no protection Wax will protect and provide a nice gloss and shine.

Second, when I polish, finish, glaze, FMJ, and then seal, is it ok to use a motorized bonet to remove each step? Thanks again for all the great advice! |

Google Klasse All In One. Polish and synthetic wax in one step, if you do not want to spend all weekend working on the finish. Great for hand or machine.
I use Klasse AIO, but I have been polishing with Menzerna in a 4 step process due to the sensitivity of Jet Black.
