finally cooled down enough for me to do a wax job
went through a touchless car wash on the basic setting just to remove dirt/grime
clayed with Griot's clay and used lots of "quik detailer" as lubricant
sealed with Jescar Powerlock
waxed with Collinite 845
(sealant and wax applied with Griot applicators, buffed with Rag Company 500g microfiber)
thanks to everyone who gave me suggestions for detailing products in the other thread, really helped
