What do you consider a lot? In and out of the garage once a month? It almost looks fake it's so clean. I waxed my hood and front bumper today, twice, cause I was jealous yours looked so clean, but mine still doesn't look like that.

Looking good! I understand how pics "hide" many smaller imperfections.

Polishing = removal of swirl marks and light scratches.
Waxing = a final protection coat.
