Slimg60 0 Posted August 29, 2009 having just found a new clay kit sitting at the back of my shed I think i'll give it a go. Unfortunately I have no idea how to use one. I've washed and dried the car. Do you rub the clay bar round like applying polish? Any help would be much great. Cheers Slim Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

coullstar 0 Posted August 29, 2009 Does this work with overspray? Washed the car and gave it a quick wax and its has a shed load of overspray on it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
millerman 0 Posted August 29, 2009 yes but you need a courser grade of clay and over spray will come off Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Slimg60 0 Posted August 31, 2009 I cannot believe what a difference it has made :eek: Spent a couple of days with the clay, megs stage 1, SRP, EGP and wax and it looks like a completely differnt car, until it rained last night :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
daves16v 1 Posted August 31, 2009 Will 1 bar do the whole car? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cdem 0 Posted August 31, 2009 I used one bar on my car last time, you just have to remember to fold it and keep the surface wet, like in the videos :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim Bowen 1 Posted August 31, 2009 Will 1 bar do the whole car? yep, depending how dirty the car is, i've used the same bar about 4-5 times. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Slimg60 0 Posted August 31, 2009 i was really surprised with how dirty the clay got, even just after I'd washed the car. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yandards 0 Posted September 1, 2009 Best bet is to use the bar once on the paint and then use it on your wheels. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

big ben 10 Posted September 1, 2009 i have ordered a shit load of cleaning products for mine to, never used a clay bar so going to spend a whole day cleaning friday :D hopefully have some good results like yourself... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
millerman 0 Posted September 1, 2009 you all are aware that claying will only remove contaninates that normal washing wont ok it leaves your paint feeling silky smooth but once you have clayed you need to polish and then wax. claying can induce maring which can look like pretty cack so make sure you polish afterwards then on to wax or you may not get the best results :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kevin Bacon 5 Posted September 1, 2009 Does this work with overspray? Washed the car and gave it a quick wax and its has a shed load of overspray on it. It will only get light, dusty over spray off but not localised over spray. You need G3 compound for that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
