Default Polish vs. Wax question...

I know this has been beat to death, but here goes another volley:

Once you wax a car, does polishing over the wax do anything, or do you need to remove the wax to put an additional coat of polish. If it does help, HOW, as the wax is supposed to be a protectant. How can the polish get through to the paint?

Default Ted, check out zainobros.com

IMO it's better than goin' carnauba. After just 1 application of Z2 I can already see results.
