Do I still need to sand the model if I use Tamiya polishing compound?

I have the coarse, fine, and polish Tamiya compounds. This is my first car model. I don't have any polishing cloths but I do have fine grit sandpaper. Can I just use the Tamiya stuff instead of polishing cloths or sandpaper? Other questions ...

1. Do I use the Tamiya coarse on the body even before priming?
2. What about on the primed model, or painted model?
3. If I'm going to clear coat the decals, and polish the clear coat, do I need to polish the paint job before applying decals?
4. Can I use Carnauba wax (from my actual car) to wax the kit?

Thanks in advance!
