now you've mentioned it, yeah 3rd stage doesn't feel "that" much smoother than 2nd one? what to do then...once a year a truly deep polishing session? With what gareth?
What colour is your car?

A few times a year you should use an actual polish, rather than stage 1. Stage 2 is a 'pure polish' with no cutting ability so this won't do.

You should replace your stage 3 with a better quality finishing wax - which one will depend on your car colour.

So a few times a year, instead of the 3 stage system you should consider:

Clay/polish/seal/wax. You can glaze before sealing if you want, to get a wetter shine.

Meg's 3 stage is okay for general cleaning throughout the year, and as a decent 3 step for beginners, but you'll get much better results out of what i said. You don't need to polish everytime though, in between polishes a paint cleanser will do just fine - which is what the stage 1 is.
