Used the WG twins on wife's car. No rush, took about a week. Now am looking to take care of the final pieces and use BFWD.

Since this was a drawn out process in the garage, my plan is to pull it out and just do a regular wash of the car to take care of all the dust and stuff that exists in life in general, garaged or not.

I didn't want to apply anything to the paint that may interfere with good sealant life, so didn't use a QD or similar.

Is a regular car wash soap ok?

Any reason to use a dawn soap or similar instead?

Am I correct in assuming the WG swirl remover and polish don't need something like an IPA wipedown?

Is there any reason I would use my Pinnacle Paintwork Cleaner given that I did the swirl remover and polish ops?
 
I would not wash the car again. I would just use a waterless wash and a Metro Blaster / leaf blower. Wipe down each panel right before you apply the sealant. I do not believe using a QD will interfere with the sealant bonding.
 
No waterless wash on hand, and this needs to occur this afternoon since she wants her car back on the road for tomorrow.

Closest thing I have to that is OOC.

That would do the trick! Its basically a waterless wash! Just do that, appy your sealant, but a QD in general shouldnt cause a bonding issues FWIW! Good luck!:dblthumb2:
