    do an IPA wipedown of the car to check for true correction, then wash the vehicle once again to remove any residual. make sure you empty your wash buckets and use clean water. be sure to flood those panel gaps etc to get all of that polish dust out of there (if there is any), then dry, apply sealant/LSP. then stand back and admire your work!

    Wash
    Clay
    Polish (however many times it takes)
    Wax OR Sealant, then wax.
    Never wax then seal.

    What if i go from Conilite --> CG Blitz or AW thats fine right

    Technically Connlite is a wax and Blitz is a sealasnt

    But the rule is Most durable on the bottom, but its fine right
