Model rockets can withstand huge acceleration forces, so they tend to use
high impulse, high force motors with fast burn times. Then coast to apogee.
You can model all this stuff in a free program called open rocket. You put

Another reason for this is that if you run low pressure very far you’re going
to need a fairly large pipe to handle the volume - always an issue in motor

Clay bar won’t cause any scratches unless you get something nasty embedded in
it and drag it across the paint, but it’s usually a good idea to do it
lengthwise just in case.
It’s when people try compounding by hand (bad idea) where you’ll get visible
scratches usually.

There are a number of areas in the western Nevada desert that are restricted
