A couple of questions. Where in the world are you storing the car where it needs to be clayed 60 days after it was painted? Did you test the paint to see if it in fact needs to be clayed? Do you know WHY you clay paint in the first place and how to check it to see if it needs claying?

Second, what crap of a wax do you plan to use that requires reapplication EVERY WEEK??? That would really be some crappy wax, unless you are storing the car in a oven and washing it with scalding hot water everyday. There are a TON of waxes out there that will more than last way past your appointment so whatever you are using, I would love to know what it is called.

Whatever you use is going to have to be stripped off the car anyway so the only thing you are doing is making work for whoever is going to work on your paint. Get a tiny can of something cheap, wax it once and let your detail guy do the rest and do it right.
