Ah a guy with smarts..... :p
Well the first thing I would do is go ahead and use the dawn for washing the car, seeing how it strips EVERYTHING! Then, if your paint is kinda "weathered" go ahead and use the Mequiars body scrub or if its not that bad use the Mequiars cleaner wax. Next apply a coat of #7 glaze polish. After that, depending on your time and/or budget put on a coat of Mequiars Gold Glass (if your car is dark in color) or Mequiars #26 Hi-tech yellow wax for all others, including dark cars, its just that it seems that Gold Class works better on dark cars
Finally if you have the time/and or money, go ahead with a coat of Mequiars #20 polymer sealant.....Bling, bling as they say
