Depending on your paint, you might or might not need a finer polish afterwards (though Prime Strong might be enough for that role - again, depending on your paint).
If you're buying in the US, might I recommend MicroFiberTech for microfibers? They have a good selection, and they offer a lot of the same towels that the detailing sites sell, but at half the price. Also, again if you're purchasing in the US, I'd strongly consider getting Ultima Waterless Wash - more lubrication than your normal QD, leaves a nice slickness, and has a great dilution ratio (1:43).
