Subject: [CR]Waxing an older bike?

This has been on my mind since attending the Cirque back in May and then seeing an auction of a Wastyn Paramount on ebay last week. In the description of the Paramount the seller mentioned that the bike had never been polished. As well, several of the bikes at the Cirque looked as though they had never seen a coat of wax. While I am not obsessive with waxing my bikes I do give them a coat of wax now and then and in particular the chrome for what I thought would be protection. Am I missing something here or do some folks treat their bikes like I treat my cars, no wax?
