Won't clay bar remove the wax as well? In either case, one just needs to apply a coat of wax afterwards, the area will be fairly small anyway, unless you have rubber all over the car. If that's the case, I'd take it to a pro.

That is why I use the finger technique, and I do bring it to a pro...at the end of the season.

honestly, i think it's the parodox of having a nice car. i do use him for detail work on our cars periodically (8-12mos) for about $200.

i really think he just loves the porsche and takes a lot of pride in it...plus i do send him a lot of business

This always works for me. After a hard day at the track, the car needs a good wash/detail.

A good wash = clay, mild polish, wax....a half a days of work will keep it looking new.
