The Polishing stage is to get the finish of your paint back to how it should be, apply a good wax over the top to protect it and make it easier to clean next time;)

Always use a 2 bucket wash method and lambswool mitt to stop inflicting swirls then no need to polish everytime.

Basic advice, get yourself there, now get yourself over to : http://www.detailingworld.co.uk/ for even more, but be warned it can be adictive:1zhelp:

Hi

It is well worth claying your car, there is a guide here: http://www.vwaudiforum.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=56071

With regards to waxing, there is a massive selection and it depends on how much you want to spend.

A great all rounder is this wax and it will provide great winter protection: http://www.elitedetailer.com/product_info.php?products_id=479&osCsid=b723028daa1159d2b57b33ef7007065f&cPath=

Agree with above, make sure to clay I swear by CarKandy stuff but its down to your own preference, Sonus clay also good!
