PVA only or PVA + Wax?

I'm about to do my first mould and I'm not sure if I should just use PVA release agent only or I should combine it with release wax. Surface finish isn't of much importance as I will be polishing the mould after anyway. Would I get away with PVA only or should I do PVA and then wax that?

Regards,
Stan

Best combination I've found is multiple coats of easy lease with a coat of buffed wax after to give the final gloss
