Definitely have to apply cleaner wax first to clean away all dirt embedded in your paintwork.

Then only do you apply sealant to protect your paintwork.

Surely you don't apply sealant on your paintwork first and then apply cleaner wax to clean off the sealant.   ;)

For new cars like mine, will the sealant diminish the clear coat?

Sealant is meant to protect the paintwork with a protective layer. It will in no way damage your paintwork.

It is recommended to use cleaner wax to clean your paintwork.

Avoid abrasive polish as it "eats" away your clear coat (to reveal the secondary layer of clear coat to reveal the shine).

Polish is meant for older cars with dull paintwork.
