You could always use a 2nd solution of wash soap as a clay lube and do panel by panel by covering with wash solution, claying, and then rinsing after each one. I find that it saves me a LOT of time and minimizes the chance of sliding the clay outside of the lubed are and causing more correction work for myself.

Sonax FE is an awesome product and I use it often but after the first decontamination and a good coat of wheel sealant, you really only need a good APC to keep them clean afterwards.

A quick detailer should be fine. You should keep in mind that a sealant's durability is affected by anything that touches the paint. That would include weather, airborne contaminants and anything YOU do in term of washing.
