    Polish to gloss, Wax to protect. If you want that wet look, you would apply a wax over a coat of polish. There is plenty of polishes out there 2 choose from, CCP will advise you what is best for your vehicle. That "wet" look comes from what wax you apply.

    Meguiar's Tech Wax will not remove scratches. It contains fillers that will hide light swirling which eventually wash out. It is also not a polish (though it does contain cleaners) but a synthetic polymer sealant. P21S Concours Wax would be the cheapest I'd recommend and it is about $70 for a tub. Might sound expensive but one tub will last you years. Mine lasted 3 years.

    should always use a pre wax cleaner after you wash the car if your goin to re-pollish and wax it, takes any impuritys out of the paint and helps giv a much better finnish for the pollish and wax
