There is lot of variables, location, weather, parking, temperature, etc. Like the Junkman said, "clay when the bag tells you." Use the baggy test..

Nice job!! btw are you from Oahu by any chance?

U can use a wash mitt, I been using a microfiber chenele wash mitt for 4 years now on rinse less washes with the two-bucket method with grit guards.

Very nice! That pad pocket :dblthumb2:

For regular plastic headlights, sometimes I just skip damp sanding and use CarPro Ceriglass with cutting pad..it's agressive enough to remove damage clear coat on the headlights. Then I follow it with M205 to remove light scratches that Ceriglass leaves behind..

If those are clear-coated carbon fiber, yes you can use dlux but i recommend the regular cquartz. If those are not clearcoated carbon fiber, then dlux...
