Meguiar's Cleaner Wax or Tech-Wax?
I'm detailing my car this weekend and bought Meguiar's smooth surface clay kit to try for the first time. I didn't realize that it came with their cleaner wax, so I bought some Meguiar's Tech-Wax seperately. I'm confused about whether or not I have to use the cleaner wax afterwards in order to finish the cleaning process properly, or if I can just use the Tech-Wax instead. From what I've read, it sounds like the Tech-Wax offers better protection, but I'm wondering if the cleaning properties of the cleaner wax are a necessary ingredient to getting the proper results from the clay kit. I'm also not sure whether or not I SHOULD use the cleaner wax since it apparently has abrasives, and some say to only use that for older neglected cars, while others say to use it as general maintanence. My car is 3 years old and has previously been waxed approximately once a year, if that helps (I know it needs it more often, that's what I'm trying to do here).
