In a word "Yes".
There are intermediary stages you could also do: After washing (using TWO buckets -one to rinse lambswool mitt and one to load it with suds) - then decontaminate paint (get rid of iron filings etc but requires a specialist de-ironiser). After claying you could then "correct" the paint to get rid of usual swirls and minor scratches (best done with a machine but can be done laborously and less effectively by hand). After applying polish (I guess you are using Autoglym SRP? This will mask the swirls for a while but they will re-appear) you could then glaze the car (another specialist product) After glazing you could either apply sealant or wax. But your method works for a quick spruce up (I spent 8 hours on mine Good Friday doing all the stages I outlined! But I don't use SRP nor do I use wax - I glaze and seal).
