Nice detail mate some great shots of your shiny mota

Why did you top the DC3 with GCCC? GCCC has some cleaners in it and is likely to remove the DC3 application.

it smooth off and made the car shine better wasn't too happy with the meg prefer the gold class.

Megss caraubu wax
and then the gold class

I would just keep your process but loose the GCCC final, its not really adding anything in theory.

any way did a wash (gold class conditioner) and dry (mitt and mircofibre)
then did a clay bar (megs)
then did a Pinnicle swirl remover
then a megs paint cleaner
then autoglym super resin
then a meg caraubu wax

always apply waxes ultra thin, remember you have done all the work with swirl remover and cleanser, this is just to add depth and prtection, is nice thin layer, 30 mins to cure and wipe off, do not buff.
