Wax after Polish?

Hi autopians, I recently bought a 3M all in one Wax, but my question is if I should or shouldn´t wash my car again an then apply a final coat of P21S.



Best Regards,
 
I don't rewash, but I do a 91% IPA wipedown of each panel before I begin waxing, alcohol in a spray bottle and wipe clean with an MF. This removes any residual polish and oils/fillers. The wax bonds really well with the wipedown and on average I get another month or two of durability with my collinites. Other waxes you might get another couple weeks maybe 3.
 
If this is all done in a day, then no you do not need to wash it after polishing. Some people do QD though in between polishing and waxing.
