Need detailing steps validation

Hello everyone. I'm in a particular predicament. Nothing serious. But I sorta need you opinion about my steps. This is what I've gotten from reading the posts. I hope you can help me iron out some few kinks if I made some mistake.



We currently have a drought in my area so washing the car with a hose is not allowed. However, using a bucket is fine. I'm planning to wash the car this friday around 7 pm co'z I don't have a garage and that's when the sun's about to go away.

Current situation:



Haven't really washed the car in 6 months

Applied Klasse twins 6 months ago

Did not apply wax

QD it with Klasse's Sonus acrylic spritz 2 weeks ago just to see

I want a shine that's deep. Going to use Paste glaz



Here's my steps/questions:



1) I'd like to strip the whatever remaining Klasse on it and start the Klasse process again. Should I Dawn wash the car? or just use my Eimann Powerwash? I even have the Eimann Hi-intensity if you think I should use that. The car's not that dirty.



2) Clay the car.



3) WAsh the car again with Eimann powerwash? or just rinse it?



4) AIO



5) here come's the tricky part. Hopefully I'll be done around 9 pm. Add the first SG. And wait 24 hrs.



6) 24 hours later or about 20... the car has been sitting outside. must have dust on it. should i just wipe it with my Miracle towel or use the Sonus Acrylic spritz (klasse's QD) on it before I add another SG layer?



Also do you think it'll be a good idea to use the Klasse spritz between SG layers? Sorta like the Z6 between Z2 layers I've been reading about.



7) 24 hours later... (sunday evening) add another SG layer.



8) Another tricky part. I want to have 3 layers of SG on my silver metallic Focus. Do you think I should stick with 2 layers? If 3 is a good Idea then I guess I'm going to have to add the 3 layer on monday after I get back from work. That means the car would have been driven, so should I QD before layering?





9) After another 24 or so cure time... Paste Glaz.....



10)would Eagle One Wet Wipe and Shine be a good QD for the paste glaz?



Thank you so much in advance guys. I really appreciate all the help.

From the testing I have done Klasse SG does not wash off with dawn. If you have applied it 6 months ago, then some should have worn of so it should be pretty thin. A paint cleaner or a polish will take Klasse SG right off. Klasse AIO will probably strip the old layer of Klasse SG.



It is more of a personal preference but I do not wash after I clay. I use a quick detailer as my lubricant and go from clay right to my polishing.



If the car has been sitting outside, then it needs to be washed or quickdetailed before you apply another layer of Klasse SG. I know my truck gets covered with dust very shortly after washing. I do not know anything about Sonus Acrylic spritz but I assume it would be ok to use since it is Klasse's QD or so you say. I really do not know. As long as it doesn't contain any carnauba wax and does not lay down a layer of oils, then it won't affect the Klasse SG application.



I do not know anything about Eagle One Wet Wipe and Shine so I'll let someone else take that answer.
