I would do;

a/g tar remover
Wash + dry
meg DC 1,2,3

jewelultra - that is just a polish with a filler in as far as im aware.
Megs Body Scrub is similar to DC1, both are good paint cleaners.

Not nessescarily -

I wash, leave car wet, instead of using Quik Detailer as clay lube use a spray bottle with car shampoo and water mix.

Then you only have to lightly re-wash and dry once.
