      On my new cars, i've tended to not use clay and use AG SRP instead, it's a mild cutting polish.

      My routine is going to be:-

      Snow foam/any APC
      Rinse
      Wash with 2BM using Zymol wash (Smells of pineapple and coconut lol)
      Rinse
      Pat dry with MF towel
      AG SRP each panel thouroughly by hand
      Seal with a decent carnuba wax such as Dodo/Poorboys or the new AG HD wax

        I'm with alcaz. I have tried this product and also a similar one called showroom shine. I've used this on a few of my cars including black ones and the finish is pretty amazing. If the car is particularly dirty though I will wash it first but then use the spray. It's great for a quick and long lasting wax.

        For the full monty though it has to be meguiers all the way for me. Gold Class wash, clay bar and 3 steps to perfection. Then there are the detailers to finish. Made my Prius gleam so much you wouldn't believe the attention it drew in the staff car park. Nobody could believe it!
