Tis' okay bro!
I know the difference between clay and polish.
I've clayed 3 cars (96 Firebird, 01 Bonneville, 00 Camaro) and got good results. but i never actually polished any of them. I have tha detailing guide from autopia, but i dont remember if it said thaty polishing would remove the embedded particulate matter from teh paint.
thats why i asked.
now my car is all :bounce
