Default Polishing vinyl decals?

I plan on polishing my Beetle(Arggh, still haven't thought of a name ) sometime soon. He got dusty thanks to some construction work I passed .

Anywho, I was wondering how to go about polishing when you have vinyl decals? Just treat them like the paint and rub the wax onto them too?

Also, what about claybaring? I've read alot of them on the fourms and I'd love to give them a go. Can I still use one, and how when I'm going over the decals? Thanks so much guys.

Still gotta get some pics up.

It's usually recommended that you don't wax vinyl, but I do it every couple months just to keep it soft. I don't normally clay the vinyl...no real reason why, I just never have
