This is what the Optimum Polish instructions on the web site state:

Always use enough product to create a barrier between the buffing pad and the paint surface. Wipe off residue by misting Optimum Car Wax on it and wiping it with a microfiber towel for a steak-free perfect finish. Can be used by hand or with an orbital or high-speed buffer.

Optimum Car Wax? Is that a typo? I would assume it would be ONR.

No, that is correct. You can use the wax to buff off the residue. It saves a step and adds protection.

I don't think they are talking about using OCW to mist the pad, but misting OCW on the vehicle when you wipe off the polish.
I have done something similar with Poli-Seal, removing any residue with Duragloss Aqua Wax. Seems to work and I'm sure the OCW would work just as good if not better.

yep - Optimum Finishing Polish wiped off with OCW is excellent

Actually just about anything wiped of with OCW is excellent. We als prime pads for certain jobs with it, or Instant detailer. IF you want a fast, but excellent job, use OCW as a clay lube, your customers will love it, and so will your bank account.
