Default Adam's Correcting Polish

I am new to paint correction and I've never used a Random Orbit polisher before. That said, I wanted to try and "bring back" my 47 year old, single stage paint as best I could.
Nothing will help the chips, nicks, bad touch-ups and spidering that plagues this paint job, however, I am super impressed with the result that I achieved using Adam's Correcting Polish and Orange Correcting Pad. Even for a novice, the results are pretty outstanding.
I'm using kid gloves with the machine because of the age of my single stage paint. One go around with the polish, and a top coat of Adam's Americana Wax. I'm pretty damn happy.
I can't afford to repaint my car, so for now this process has made it presentable.
I still have a little ways to go with the paint correction, but I'd definitely recommend these products for a tired old paint job.

I have a question for Adams. I bought a C6 vette. Washed it, clay bar, and then hand waxed it. I want to polish it with a orbital polisher. (I know I should’ve done this now before waxing lol). My question is can I just now polish over the wax with polisher and then wax it again? Or do I need to somehow remove the old wax before polishing? What is best product you have for that ultimate shine I’m looking for. Thanks

You can go over the wax however it may clog up your pad.
I think that if it were me I would do a strip wash or do a Coating Prep wipe down.
