Posted this week the problems i am having with soft lexus paint on my 2006 IS220.
I know I am new to detailing but so far I have clayed 6 cars, and followed the same steps. Wash car, get clay warm by moulding in hand to small pancake shape, lube area well and lube clay bar, move clay back and forth over area 3-4 times lubing all the time, check paint for smoothness. Keep remoulding clay and check for harsh debris, finish with final wash. Each car has come out fine ready for polish or wax.
SO time for the Lexus!. When I had finished and dried off, holy hell!. On every body contour or ridge the paint had scuffed badly, on flat surfaces nothing, just as normal. Luckily the marks came out using Carlack AIO and some elbow grease, I was too p****d
off to get the UDM out, finished off with pure Carlack sealant, with the car looking the best since purchased. Come on lads where did i go wrong.
Cheers from the UK.
