Even most brand new cars have "industrial fall out and other impurities" (great description, justnspace!). I've heard this is especially true for cars that have been transported via rail.
I wasn't a believer until I actually clayed my car. Needless to say, it was well worth my time.

1. Wash Car (using ONR).
2. Dry Car.
3. Clay Car (if needed).
4. Wax car.

you wont hurt it.
you'll just end up with a shiny car.
1. wash.
2. dry
3. using a lubricant(quick detailer) clay car. Go to youtube to watch how to clay.
4. wax
this is a simple wash. no paint correction.
like i told you in the beginning, there is no right or wrong answer. I found that claying the car right after a wash before the dry saves me A LOT of time.
1.wash
2. while car is still wet, clay.
3. rinse
4. dry

I got a few waxes I use on my cars and clients. Souveran is great on dark colors will make the car look real wet. It's pricey at 95 a jar. Auto Glym is also nice if you can find it for 20 dollars at Wal-mart. Collinite 845 is one of those hidden gem, its very durable while giving the car a real nice shine. Like Justnspace said trail and error until you find what works best for you.

1. Pre-rinse car, rinse off mud and dirt
2. Wash car (I recommend ICE car wash in warm water in 5 gallon bucket using a Wool Mitt... NO sponges!!!!)
3. Wash wheels with Eagle One A2Z tire and wheel cleaner
4. Rinse car with filtered/de-ionized water
5. Dry Car using Real Lamb skin (3'x3') shammy Pre-moisten with hot water, A silicone California Water T-bar help a lot too
6. Clay Car (if needed only - 1 per six month max)
7. Wax car with Mother's dry wax. Rub Damp cloth in wax can and wax car.
8. I like to use the Eagle One Tire "GEL" or Amor All extreme Tire shine
P.S. If you don't use filtered or de-ionize water you may want to use classic rain-x on all exterior windows to prevent water spots. Do not put on interior windows or exterior mirrors.

I sue any of the Meg's cash wash products I liek them all and for wax on my Silver car's I use Megs #21 on the gf's dark car I use Blackfure WetD Diamond becuase it leaves no swirls or any marks, at 6 months and 3 wax jobs the paint on her dark gray RDX looks like day one. I do feel the Meg's #21 is a bit more durable than the Blackfire. I wax both cars about every 3 months and they still bead water well and appear like they have some wax on them still at that point.
