Default Quick detailing Question

Real quick:
1) Washed the car with dish soap and dried
2) Claybar-ed the **** out of it
3) Used Turtle Wax Ice Polish

The question is: Should I use a wax at the end?
The ice bottle kind of makes it sound like a wax.

If you could chime in and help a newbie it would be appreciated!

A good coat of wax will protect the polish
