Use Bullit's advice and tape up tricky areas and clean/dry after claying

You will be left with lots of smears and clay residue if not lol

Tea and then beer

Soak in Maxi Suds using Spray adaptor on end of hose pipe - Leave for 5 minutes, let the foam do it's job and allow it too drag the dirty off the car.
Soak wheels in a wheel cleaner if you have one, leave per instructions.
Soak Arches in a de-greaser and leave for 5-10 minutes
rinse
wash with maxi suds using wash mitt and 2 bucket method
Rinse car down
clay if needed with Megs clay kit
Rinse and Wash and Dry - After this all possible dirt is going to be off.
tape up all black bits such as splitter, window seals, sun roof, etc.....
