Default Blackfire Gloss polish Question

I am looking to get some of this for the wet look it gives, my question is can I use this following waxing the car.

I am going to clean and wax with meguiars NXT shampoo and wax. Then was thinking about putting a coat of blackfire on afterwards.

What would be the best way to apply? just straight on after waxing do I need to spray the paintwork with water first

All answers and guidance appreciated

Cheers guys

I'm no expert, but I would have thought applying a polish after wax a bad idea....

Thought it should be polish then wax....

intensive polish - blackfire polish - black fire wet diamond - black fire canuba wax
