You've done everything right: you worked out all of the moves, scrubbed the crux holds with your lucky brush, and rested just the right amount of time in between burns. Now it's time to pull out your redpoint cord, tie in, and send the rig with the Petzl Volta 9.2 Dry Climbing Rope. Thanks to the Volta's specific thermal treatment and superior overall handling, you won't have to worry about getting short-roped on the crux clip and it weighs so little, you might find yourself double checking to make sure you actually tied in. With a 9.2-millimeter diameter, the Volta easily cruises through unwieldy pieces of pro, reducing rope drag and Petzl even added a Duratec dry treatment so that you can climb on, rain or shine. In case you want a little post-send adventure, this rope can be used as a half or a twin as well as a single so that you can hit the cracks and big walls using the same rope you do for clipping bolts.
