Question about Durability of this process.

I'm detailing my mother-in-law's White '03 Camry tonight and tomorrow (keeping it overnight). She's only giving me about $20 to help out with the price of products I use. On my car, durability isn't really an issue since I was about once a month and my car is garaged. This means, I might have to buy some new products, but don't have time to order stuff. Her car's outside 24/7 so I need good durability. I have Sonus SFX-2 and 3 on order but won't be here in time so was planning on doing the following process.

Tonight:
Wash
Claymagic Claybar
Meg's #9 by hand
1 coat of NXT Paste

Tomorrow:
1 coat of Meg's #26

My question is about the durability of this process. Will there be any bonding issues with the #9 under the NXT? Durability is more important than looks on this one, since she probably won't have me do it again for 6 months or more. THe only products that I actually have at this point is the claybar and NXT so I can easily substitute the other products with different OTC products. Suggestions would be great. Thanks.

I've also heard good things about #21 but can't find it locally. Would #20 have anywhere near the same durability as 21?

Sounds good to me... C3M has a SWR for light and Dark Colored cars at pepboys, or go to Lowes by a PC and use the pad it comes with and use NXT... Will come out nice.

The problem is that we have no pepboys or advanced auto parts. Autozone and O'Reilley's are the best we've got so I'm a little limited. I'll be getting a PC in a month or so, so have to do it the hard way for now.
