New Car First Wax Job

My new car was manufactured last month. Purchased it Saturday, clayed part of it Tuesday, oh yea, big difference in the surface of the paint afterwards. Will do the whole car this weekend. No marks or swirls on the paint. Should I use just Epic on it, metalic silver, or use Amigo and then Epic? Need replies before Saturday please.

Any advice on cleaning the recessed 20 bolt heads for the two peice wheels?

If you have no swirls or marring, you can just clay and go straight to Epic.

as far as the rivits, just wash them with a boar's hair brush....
then protect with Hydro.
