so i was planing to detail my MDX today so i waited for the sun to go down and started washing the car. i also finished claying the car as well. i will be using my griots orbital to polish, seal, and wax tomorrow, but wanted to know if i had to rewash the car tomorrow or can i just use a detailing spray before starting to polish. any help is appreciated.

Thanks
 
You can just use the detail spray and microfiber towels, though later down the line invest in a water less or rinse less wash
 
You can just use a waterless/rinseless on the panel you are going to be working on. On my DD, I finished the detail within 3 weekends (6 days). On the panels I will be working on that day, I just did a waterless wash, clay, then correction process. Also, I taped off the panel that I already did so I don't mess with the LSP.

It sounds like more work than it is, which it is, but you won't need to feel the need to rush the job and get it done in one day.
 
That largely depends on how it was stored overnight. I have come to embrace Mike's concept of "always working clean" and even if it is stored in an enclosed garage overnight i will still mix up a bucket of ONR and rewash those panels i'm gonna tackle today.
 
I'm 61 and not in very good health. Consequently, I can't detail my car in one day. In fact, I usually divide it over three or four days on my pickup.

Previously, I had used detail spray so long as I could keep it clean by not driving it any (or very little). No problem, but now I've discovered Pinnacle Liquid Crystal waterless wash so I've started using it when I need to spread detailing out over a few days.

I'd prefer to not do things this way but I do what I can do.
 
For a very long time now:
I never finish a complete-detail on any vehicle in one day.

More than one day, over two weekends, once every year or two---in order to finish up a detail?
No problem...as I just "clean" a vehicle's surface before performing anything more intense.
