Default washing the car

I've been reading alot about how to properly wash your car without scratching the paint and although I would love in the future to do it junkman style, i'm not ready yet to spend 400-500$ to wash it. Would this be a decent way to wash?

1) rinse
2) using the 2 bucket system w/ grit guards and a adam's wash pads(1 for car, 1 for tires) soap/wash the car
3) use the pooling technique to get rid of excess water.. use cheap leaf blower to dry as much and finish up with a waffle drying tower
4) wax the car with adams buttery wax?(not sure which wax I should be looking at)

what should I be using to clean tires/wheel well/detailing the plastic trim?

cheers!
