is polishing and waxing done on a separate day? So that the paint is completely dry?

Nope. After you have washed/clayed give it a dry using your preferred method (I also use a leaf blower to blow all of the standing water out of any gaps), then you're good to start polishing.

The NC owners book says don't take the PRHT through an automatic car wash. Is that for real?

Yes, it's for the idiots out there.
It also states "Automatic and high-pressure car washes are harmful to a convertible top. Avoid them."
