I have 4 vehicles that ive paint coated with DP paint coating this past winter. My job doesn't give me time to detail my vehicles till Dec thru Mar when im off. I am very pleased with the coating but don t want to wait 2 yrs to recoat my trucks and cars. my ? is if I recoat every yr what steps do I take to recoat each yr? I wash, clay,polish,and recoat. or do I have to compound after claying then use polish and recoat. My vehicles paints are in excellent conditions as they all are daily drivers and get washed once a week.
 
I guess it comes down to the swirls in the paint, surely there's some going to appear over time and you don't wanna seal them in, so a light polishing is probably going to be in order I would think.
 
So do you think I just need to clay and polish to remove yr old coating on my vehiches and can skip the compounding step?

I think that's a good plan. Most coatings are less than one micron thick. A couple passes with a light finishing polish will remove that no problem.
