Default Waxing Advice!!!

I was plannong on doing some waxing on my car and I was wondering if I needed to Claybar it before I start waxing? Ive only gotten my car professionally detailed so advice would be nice. Oh yeah and please no... "theres a how-to on how to clean your car" because that wouldnt answer my question.

You don't have to clay bar it. If you haven't done it before, personally, I would. It'll help remove contaminant on the paints surface, and once you're finished, you'll have a glass like appearance, followed by the wax for protection.
