Hey, whatever works best, right?

As far as the IPA wipedown, I've only heard of pros using it on clients' cars when they use a compound/polish with some sort of glaze in them. Wipedown gets rid of the glaze to see the true condition of the paint, no?

I think for a personal car, wipedown isn't really necessary. But it's at your discretion.

Everyone I have talked to has said to use IPA to clear the oils and debris from polishing and compounds...I am still gathering intel myself...
