Also I inspected the paint after everything to determine if it needed to be polished and there was no damage or marring to polish out so why would I add an uneeded step??

Well of course I'd HOPE you'd know by now. There's still the fact that you rinsed the car, washed it with your wash media and left any leftover dirt emulsified in the soap while claying. Did you do any damage? Apparently not. Would I risk it that way? Nah.

But let me get this right, you justified it as an unneeded step but would happily have polished the car (a much more involved step) if marring had occurred? Do you see the logic here?

*Edit: Please don't take this as an attack or ill thinking of you. I was merely asking your strategy/reasoning. We've all seen your work, obviously you are a more than capable detailer.
