Can clay help my old 1999 camry?

Hi yakky, funny, I've just been trying to figure out how to put my location up. I'm very new to forums, so I can't seem to figure out how. Could you shed some light on the subject for me? Thanks!

*VERY* good advice

Make sure your process is gonna work before you try it on the whole vehicle.

For that matter, I'm a big fan of doing one/two panel(s) after each of a series of regularly scheduled washes. This can keep the whole thing from being overwhelming. Right off hand, I'd probably pick the trunk lid to do first.

I've had good results with Griot's clay without a lube. I don't use it aggressively. It glides well and does remove more than particulate matter. And like stated above, you need to polish and seal, at the least.
