Supagard v Autoglym

My new Lexus has a Supagrad coating applied before delivery. The dealer says 'only wash it, don't wax/polish it'. I would normally use Autoglym Aqua Car Wax after every wash and other Autoglym wax/polish products periodically. What's your advice please?

Never use polish because it gives a shine by cutting into the original finish and will remove the Supaguard. No reason not to use Autoglym Hi Def Wax because wax sits on top of the finish. I've never used Autogylm Aqua Car Wax; just Autoglym carwash added to the first bucket of water.
