Classy Detail

A little advice here. I used SG as a sealant with no topper. Now it`s time to clay the vehicle again. Am I removing the SG if I clay the vehicle? Do I need to re-apply SG after claying? Thanks for any advice :D .

Clay does have some abrasive qualities. If you clay properly and only use slight pressuer, you`ll probably only remove a little of the SG, but most likely not all of it. If you have more than one coat on there you should be fine. If you only have one coat on, then you might want to apply another coat.

Yeah, what MPauly said. I spot-clay (very gently) with almost every wash and it doesn`t seem to remove an appreciable amount of SG, but I have many coats on there. Eventually, the areas I`m always claying will usually need redone before the areas I never clay but it takes *many* clayings over *many* months to get to that point. By claying more/less aggressively, you should be able to deal with both stuck-in-the-SG contaminants and under-the-SG ones as you see fit.
