Denim finish paint

I have a new bike with denim finish,the book says if you polish it,it will get more glossy.Does that mean if I use my turtle wax on it the same will happen? Or don't you wax denim?
 
Thanks,almost waxed it,though I was going to try an inconspicuous spot first.But yeah,it's a no no.
 
Denim paint has a flattening agent in the clear coat. The base/clear applies just like a gloss paint. If you wax or polish it the clear will begin to retain a gloss.
 
I was wondering if the wax dried on that denim paint that it might actually start to turn white because the wax won't come out of it.
But I really don't know what would happen.

Yes a friend had a army green and black denim dyna, he waxed it 1 time and the wax turned white, he spent a long time with mineral spirits to remove it, do not wax the denim finish.
