Lynn, I do have a question what is considered a true polish?
When I used that phrase, I was mostly alluding to the frequent "misnomers" in the industry. For example, the wonderful Z products are called "show car polish" whereas they are actually pure sealants. And lots of us grew up with our dads teaching us to "polish" the car, whereas they were actually waxing it. A polish is an abrasive that actually minimizes/removes scratches and defects. By "true polish," I mean polishes like 3M's Perfect-It line, the Meguiar's polishes like DACP & SFP, Menzerna's FP & IP, etc. For a better discussion of this topic, read thru David's articles at the "Learn" icon at the top of the page.

Hope this helps clear up my terminology.
