Clay Bar (yes I searched)

I searched for this, bu tmany different answers...

After I use the clay bar and wipe it all off...should I wash the car again? or just go straight to a swirl remover wax?

instructions don't say anything about washing it before I apply a swirl remover or carnuba wax...I know some guys did/do...any help?

wash it first, when you use the claybar you use a quick detailer so no reason to do anything after.

Whenever I've done it to my car.....I would wash it first, go over it good with the claybay and quick detailer, then wash it again afterwards, then give it a good wax. Always comes out great when I do it that way

Wash, claybar, wax is typical, but the wax IS A MUST, you can wash after claybar is you like but it shouldn't be needed since clay bar takes off jsut about everything...up to you

I know wax is needed after clay bar.

My steps were...
1. Clay Bar
2. Swirl/Scratch remover
3. Carnuba Wax

Just wanted to know if after the clay bar, i needed to wash the car, before applying the other 2 steps. I didn't think I did, but wanted to make sure on that...lol
