Ray Key in his videos promotes the practice of using paste wax as a
lubricant during sanding to reduce scratches.
He then follows this with a lacquer sealer that he cuts back with 0000
wire wool dipped in wax followed by a coat of wax polish to get a
semi-gloss finish.
Putting lacquer over a waxed surface doesn't make sense to me but I
wonder if anyone here has tried it.
