Default PO85RD contains oil and wax??

"Using the Metabo rotary and a Meguiar's finishing pad, along with Menzerna Final Finish PO85RD the finish and gloss level of this new Bentley was refined. Slow methodical polishing sets were used, to ensure the finish left was one that was more than satisfactory. Due to the Menzerna Final Finish PO85RD having an oil / wax lubricator, a 50:50 mix of distilled water and IPA was used as part of the wipe down."

I'm wondering based on this if we should be wiping down with IPA or similar prior to applying sealants or wax? (to extend the life of the wax/sealant)<ul><li><a href="http://www.the-detailer.com/Bentley.html">http://www.the-detailer.com/Bentley.html</a</li></ul>

Default Nice...I've been considering picking some up...very tempting!

May be a silly question but I'm curious what exactly is IPA?
