Darticus, I am no expert by any means on detailing, so I will leave it to someone like MikeInOrange to give you advice on the followup treatment. When I did mine, I first washed it with Palmolive to remove the wax, and then clayed, then a light wash, then swirl remover, polish, wax.
I used a special fluid to wash it and then I wiped it down with another fluid that did the same thing. It's a car that doesn't go in the garage very often and was about 10 years old lol. I've got to do my crossfire as well, since the last time I waxed it it wasn't like glass

I'll do it in a few weeks after I get my windows tinted.
