Is that a personal preference? I'm new to the detailing scene and learning as I go along.

From what I've read, polishing is an abrasive method that removes swirl marks and blemishes by sanding down and smoothing out the bumps on the clearcoat, so therefore, you only wanna polish just when you think the car's had enough blemishes.
