I dont dry the car before I clay it I leave it wet to just help the clay glide

and you dont want to polish it after waxing it all prep work should be done before waxing (hence its referred to as Last Step Protection)

a little bit of wee came out when reading this. after that I have to rethink my entire wash method. I never realised polish was the last step. This is where I have been going wrong
