You really should put some effort in finding something.

And you didn't read or understand my post.
I know of that thread and others plus several Google results.
All good info but just not what I'm looking for.

If this will give you an idea of what (order of magnitude) you are asking and what is involved. I have written an A-Z of Detailing 145 pages and 21 specialized sections or Autopia has a CD available autopia.net

Or you could of course 'search' this and/or any other detailing forum (this will take some effort on your part, but you will learn a lot on the way)this is my best suggestion for a beginner detailer

I hope this link provides the answers you're looking for as I'm not exactly sure what you're asking. Is it a particular process and result or a specific product? An experienced pro will tell you what needs to be done or accomplished to achieve a certain result or look.

Your TSX is a couple months old and never been detailed, I would recommend polishing after claying - to remove oxidation or correct a surface defect (swirls, minor scratches, etc.) and will give the finish more reflectivity and gloss. Apply a sealant for durability and longevity. You can opt for an LSP like carnuba for extra added protection.
