then why the call it polish? you dont need to use dish soap if you are using similar base materials. it's only when you change base material like between polymer and natural wax that you want to remove the residue.

and i use alcohol after the wash instead to remove old wax as it is more effective and more efficient. if it's the same wax/sealant i am reinforcing, i dont remove the old. Plus, if you do it right, grime washes off from the polymer that's already on there.

and why spray only 2-3 times a year if it's that easy?
i use hydro each time i wash the dd's. i use it on paint, glass, seals, exterior plastics, wheels.

years of experience huh? i think we all here have like in excess of at least a decade experience. glad to hear that honda polish option works for you though. gives the readers something to check out.
