You'd be fine doing this, like 06_pursuit_gt said, clay bars come before polishing/paintwork correction.

Clay Bars are used to remove embedded contaminants from the paint surface. They should always be used before you polish. If you don't, you run the risk of grinding whatever is stuck to the paint surface back into the paint when you go to polish.
