I like the Meguiars 3 step procedure. I wash my X twice, like legend, and then the 1st step (body scrub) removes anything else that is on the paint. The second step is the polish which gives the paint a wet appearance. The 3rd step is the actual wax, which protects the paint. Use a different applicator for each. It looks great afterwards!
