Pinnacle PCL and polish?

Typically I use Pinnacle paintwork cleansing lotion on my car followed by a wax or sealant. If I need to start using something to polish off fine scratches or swirls should I use the cleansing lotion which is supposed to chemically clean/strip the paint & pores of waxes and built up dirt? Or should I be fine just jumping from the polish to the wax or sealant? I'm thinking the latter but just wanted to make sure I'm thinking right.
