Clay bar is like buffing your paint with compound. It strips a very fine layer of clearcoat off to get things smooth again. I strongly reccomend you using Mequires Cleaner wax before using clay bar if at all possible. It does a great job and does all the prep work for a fresh coat of wax. I use it once a year on all my vehicles and apply a coat of wax on every few weeks with quick wax in between. All of my cars feel like butter 12months of the year. Even in the winter!

 

yep... actually a good buffing will make it shine up as much as it can, the claybar can be used to remove over-spray and surface imperfections... and it proves to be quite useful when the neighborhood vandals(or crazy ex-girlfriends) spray painting your ride with her favorite chosen color. Safety Orange is always my favorite decoritive pick also .

The point is it takes a lot less rubbing a current gen vehicle to get thru the clear than it ever has in the past. Electrostatic paint processes are computer-controlled to spray the "least" amount of paint possible in order to coat it to begin with and your busy rubbing it away with what amounts to a squishy wet rock.

 

holy **** on that second pic. wow.

 

Looks great nice job.

 

thanks again guys

anyone else have any super clean pics???

 

not me. but im really thinking about attempting to do what you did because that looks amazing!! better than off the lot. looks like it just rolled out of the factory!! if only it would stop raining in the southeast. a week and a half strait!!!

 

We havn't had much rain but the pollen is ****ing horrible! I spend 2-3 hours on my truck a week washing it, and just hours later it's yellow. All well, i wish i could buff my truck. I'm afraid of the rust i might break through on the wheel wells tho haha

 

i hear ya, its the same hear, its horrible
we had a cook out sun, i washed the glass table on our deck in the morning
and by noon, it had a layer of green yellow crap on it
