How to properly use Meguiar's sealant and yellow wax?
Here is my routine I'm planning:
1) Wash car by hand and dry it
2) Clay it
3) Meguiar's 21 Synthetic Sealant
4) Meguiar's 26 wax
5) Meguiar's quik detailer
Am I missing anything or doing anything out of order? pls let me know guys. Also. When Would I use #7 show car glaze if I chose to include it in my routine?

Couple updates ....
1. Don't dry between washing and claying. A damp surface is not a bad thing.
2. Rinse well after claying, then dry.
3. Sealant -- allow it between 8-24 hours to fully cure before topping with a wax.
4. Wax or Show Car Glaze -- Once the sealant is cured, you can use either as wanted and both are completely optional and likely unneeded.
5. Quick Detailer -- This product is used to remove light dirt, bird doo-doo and other issues between washes. If you are looking for something to "boost" the wax, consider something like Ultimate Spray Wax.
You don't have a paint cleaning (other than clay) chemically or abrasive. You might want to consider polishing when possible which would come before the sealant. Polishing paint makes the most difference in the finish and removes swirls and marring.
