Well done! The first time is the most intimidating. I didn't have any test vehicles for my first attempt, so I dove in the deep end and started on my CSS. When you do a clay bar, compound, polish, and wax job, it easily takes 2 days to complete.

Edd China Top Tip 1: go easy until you get a feel for it. It's always better to go back over an area because it needs some additional work than to go too far.

Edd China Top Tip 2: take the time to mask off areas you don't want wax residue on. It's time consuming to mask and you're all excited to get started, but it's WAY worth the time afterwards to mask.

Edd China Top Tip 3: if you get wax residue on some rubber trim, the good old Pink Pearl pencil eraser works wonders to remove it.

Here's a reflection pic I took after doing a 4-step polish on my 911 cab:
