Question Cleaning, polishing, waxing question

I've been using Meguires products for a while now, so I had to stock up on some more of their products lately. I purchased Deep Crystal Car Wash, their Cleaner / Wax, and a bottle of Deep Crystal Polish at a local auto parts store. Here's my question: If I wash and then use the cleaner / wax, should I then use the polish immediately after using the cleaner / wax or could I wait a day or so to use the polish? (Of course when I use the polish, I would wash the car again before applying). Has anyone used these multiple process cleaner / polishes like what I'm talking about? If so, what did you think of the results? It doesn't say you have to use them like this, but it suggests after using the cleaner / wax, to follow up with the polish.

Thanks,

Mike

I'm a big Meguiar's fan too. Deep Crystal polish, Gold Class wax...killer results. And I always have on hand a bottle of the "Quick Detailer" with a clean microfiber towel. Unless you you have a lot of swirls or junk that's stuck to the surface, you probably don't need to pre-treat with the paint cleaner/wax. I could be wrong.

Wash, clean, polish and wax, all on the same day.
The above about 3 times a year.

Then just regular wax every month or 2 depending on weather, dust, etc.

Quick detailer, every 2 weeks or so.
