I didnt sift through the information here but clay barring is one of the most important steps in detailing IMO. Removing the junk you cant get by washing (waxing does not remove contaminants btw) will allow a fresh surface for wax's and sealants to adhere to which will allow them to last longer and shine better. It also keeps those contaminants from being ground into the paint if it is buffed.
This is probably beyond the scope of most people but you can completely change the way a car looks with a orbital polishing done the right way.
I've been doing mobile detailing for a good 2.5 years now and still learning obviously. Autopia and Autogeek are great sites
