Thoughts on my car setailing list?

This is for my 2001 Charcoal Grey Maxima. I'm looking for a deep, wet, "jump off of your paint" shine, if possible.



-Wash (Meg. Gold Glass)

-Clay bar (brand doesn't matter to me)

-JW Prime applied by a UDM (I have a lot of ghosting and some swirl marks unless you recommend Meg. #83 then #80. What pad type and size do I use?)

-JW A.Jett Trigger applied by hand

-NXT Tech Wax 2.0 applied by a UDM or hand (or do you recommend another wax? and what pad type and size would I use?)



What are your thoughts? Any holes that I might have missed for my car? I don't mind putting the time into the car to get it where I want it to be. Thinking this should get me to where I want to be.



Here is what it looks like after washing it.

I'd choose your clay carefully so you don't end up with more marring. ClayMagic blue or Mothers would be my OTC choices.



I suspect your paint will require more correction than you expect, and my usual recommendation is 1z Paint Polish (sources: Welcome to Exceldetail.com! or Aloha & Welcome to Our Oasis for All Your Auto Detailing, Auto Detailing Supplies, Auto Detailing Equipment, Auto Detailing Products, & Auto Detailing Accessories for all your Automobile Detailing ).



Instead of doing all those steps, I'd just wash/clay/1Z PP/wax. And I'd go with Collinite brand wax.
