Personally I don't wax - just use Zainos polishes.

You've already waxed so wait until you need to reapply then use the Dawn soap to strip, then polish and wax if you wish.

To use dish soap on your car or not to is a debate that was pretty dead until Sal Zaino hit the scene. Up until then it was pretty universally agreed that it was a bad idea based on many, many reasons. Personally, I'm against using dish soap on your car but no matter what side of the debate you find yourself on when you polish the car it will remove any wax/sealant you have on your car. So, there's really no need to use dish soap at all if you're polishing.
