Re: detailing????????
Don't use UQD for claying; it's not recommended as it makes the paint really slick, which doesn't allow the clay to pick up any contaminants. Also, it's more expensive than using the regular Quik Detailer.
As for using the 3 step products, follow the numbers on the bottles and use them in order.
Deep Crystal System Paint Cleaner - 1st step; use this AFTER claying to help clean the paint further of any paint defects.
Deep Crystal System Polish - 2nd Step; use this after the paint cleaner to polish up and add oils/conditioners back into the paint, as well as remove minor defects and LIGHT swirls (i.e. this is not meant to remove the scratch that was put in your car by someone who may have keyed it or a rock chip, etc)
Deep Crystal System Carnauba Wax - 3rd Step. This is used to seal the paint and help protect it. I personally would substitute out the Deep Crystal System Carnauba Wax for NXT 2.0 instead; it goes on easier, it's easier to buff out, and it gives a GREAT, GREAT shine on the car (check out the "Show off your Detail Work" section and look for posts with NXT 2.0 in the subject and you'll see what we mean). If you follow that, you'll get some good results. If you're looking for more info, try starting here:

And also check out Hot Topics for more frequently asked questions, like "How often should I clay?" or "ScratchX didn't remove the scratches! Why?"
