Re: Product recommendations for decon/wash prior to full correction
Thanks all for the input.
Just to clarify on my original post, all of this is preparation for paint correction, not just applying an LSP. I'm in the camp where I wouldn't clay unless I'm polishing, even if I managed to do my best-darn-mark-proof-claying ever.
On a similar note: to be honest my cars have been running around FAR dirtier than I would like to admit due to the fact that I just don't like blitzing through the wash process as fast as possible, which unfortunately has been all that time has been allowing lately. Like you guys have mentioned, this is supposed to BE therapy, not make you NEED therapy. Thus I end up letting them ride until proper care can be taken to get them back up to snuff.
Thanks for the clarification on Descale being more a maintenance wash product vs a heavy lifting water spot remover.
Tony (SWETM) nailed my whole curiosity for focusing more on the chemical pre-steps this go around - the idea is to have the paint as clean and bare as possible so the pads are only working on correction, not cleaning.
On the topic of deep cleaning, one of the thoughts I had after doing the clay step was a wipe down either with a stiff mix of N-914 as mentioned, or I was thinking about picking up some Feynlab Pure Rinseless as it seems like it could be good to have around. Anyone have much experience with that product? I know that's a better question for the sister site, but thought I'd check.

Just clay with N914 and avoid adding another step.

So I’ve been thinking to try this by Decon washing, then taping 1st day.
Do a clay the next day with N914 then polish then coating next morning after an eraser wipe down. Hopefully it works.
Thoughts?

Sure. Or clay during the decon wash and be done. Plenty of ways to do it.

Just to add to this in relation to Carpro soaps -
Descale - Acid based soap, primarily for occasional use to revive a ceramic coating or for a strip wash prior to a new application of wax/sealant.
Reset - A pH neutral soap designed for regular maintenance washing.
Lift - A high alkaline soap for decontamination.
