WOW!!!!!!! My first claying session.

[imported_Faceman]

Hello all,



Last week, when I was washing my car i noticed some `stuff` on my roof and bonnet. Thought to myself, for this i will need some clay. But... never bought any clay, never used any clay, never needed any clay. And, as luck would have it...



On the Clio forum that i visit a lot, I recently sent some IHG to a member who wanted to try a glaze. BEST move i ever made.



She recently posted that she had purchased some clay bars from Halfords for 15p each (about 25 cents) from their bargain bin (I think she bought about 7 or 8). They were big bars too, 300g each and bright-ish green.



I asked nicely and she agreed to send me one to try. Got the chance today to give it a whirl.



Now, like I said, never used clay before. but WOW can`t believe how easy it is to use and what effect it has had on my paint. Never really believe what a difference it could make. Now i don`t think I`ll be able to live without it!!!!



Shame I`m gonna have to pay about £8/£10 a bar from now on, but well worth it I think!



Laters,



Face

I almost ran out of the lube I got with clay magic after using it only once. I dont wanna order the lube again, is there anything i get to substitute it?

Any quick detail spray will work, or soapy water. Some people clay while the car is still wet (after washing) and then do a rinse after the clay.



It doesn`t really mater as long as it keeps the clay moving smoothly and doesn`t dry up on you

Has anyone ever tried meguiars overspray clay ?

Try claying every week. I clay my ride every week and it really makes a BIG difference. Be sure however that your paint protection is not a carnauba wax because it will be removed by claying. You may want to use Klasse or Zaino as paint protection so you can clay every week without removing your protection.



I use as lubricant, dilluted Eimann Fabrik Power Wash +.

Great cleaning power that does not remove paint protection.

Will claying the car often as in once a week removes the polish on the car??

[KCPreki11]

As long as it`s not removing what`s over the polish.
