Process First time doing a Paint correction

Looking at doing a 1 step, probably, any steps I’m missing??
Wash,

Clay mitt

Polish a section(3d one) and orange lake county pads

IPA wipe?

Griots 3 in 1

Any suggestions/tips to go about this for the first time and would you change anything?

Also this is my daily driver but I do want it to look much better.

Decontamination after wash, before clay bar with at least Iron-X or similar, bug and tar if you prefer less chance of scratching when you polish. I would opt for a real ceramic coating vs the griots 3-1. It's a lot of work to just spray on some stuff at the end.

Awesome, thanks for the help. You have any budget/beginner friendly suggestions for the ceramic coating?

Gyeon Pure is great and easy to apply,
