Which is better car polish or car wax?

It depends on your definition of car polish, polishing compounds take a little of the corrosive glaze that eventually attacks all paint jobs. Car wax puts a film of wax polish to protect the paint job. Many automobile painters I have conferred with tell me if you want to restore the paint job use polishing compound and then put a coat of wax polish on it. Polish if meant as car polish would be just like car wax it puts a film of polish on the paint to protect it. I do not have the information about the brand of polish, for that I would consult the internet.

Is waxing a car a good idea?

It is a great idea, if you want to protect the paint and make it look new. Years ago, they put a clear coat over paint to help protect it, but this only lasts so long before it begins to deteriorate or show signs of wear. At least once, but ideally at least twice a year, get a simple polish or wax to protect the paint/clear coat. For your average car, it takes about an hour to do. Good Luck!
