Paint was decontaminated and buffed a couple of months ago and dont have time for a full process. I have AG polar blast and AG wash on hand. Should I blast, magma, then wash? I usually do a foam up with AG blast, then foam with AG wash followed by tub wash by hand (mitt) using AG wash.

Yes, using the iron remover as the clay lubricant is possible if you want to save time. But the risk if inflicting more marring. In your case, having recently polished, I would just go with the iron remover on its own.
This would be my process in your case -
1/Before rinsing, apply the iron remover to the whole car. You need to do this on a cool morning or in the shade. Most people do the iron remover after the wash, but doing it before allows the chemical to work more effectively without dilution.
2/Once you see the iron remover has started to react, usually 3 to 5 minutes, foam your chosen soap over the top of the iron remover. This allows the iron remover to continue to work, while also softening dirt of oilier contamination.
3/Rinse thoroughly.
4/Reapply your chosen soap and then hand wash.
As mentioned, applying the iron remover before getting the car wet increases its effectiveness. You do need to monitor it to ensure the product doesn't dry on the surface though. Foaming over the iron remover keeps it active, although less potent.
