you really dont need to use a claybar unless your paint is really f'ed up. I you maintain your paint like only using microfiber and fresh clean towels for drying there really isnt a need for it on a new painjob. According to my dad a Senior Sales rep for BASF's automotive dept.

 

umm, claybar helps to keep that lustery shine we all crave, you dont have to clay bar every time u wax, every once and a while will do, it eliminates tar, sap, dirt, grim, and gets rid of small imperfections and scratches, it really is a wonder thing i love it deep down in my little heart..................

 

nano wax........

 

how hard is it to wax a car? i have never done it before.

 

by eagle ? ya thats crap, used it on my lava and it streaked and stuff, freaking sucks *****, i lvoe stuff..............p

 

A claybar is a waste of time on new paint... my tc is over 8 months old and my paint shines better than new. To much effort for the benefits... if you maintain your paint and are careful about what touches your paint you dont have anything to worry about... I'm sure it helps a little bit but its not really worth the time and effort.

 

Nu-Finsish is hard to beat especially for durability and cost per use

 

easy if you use a wax that comes off easy

 

mothers all the way!

 

Throw the Turtle wax away!!!! Use Meguar's NXT wax. And the clay bar helps also. Will make that thing as smooth as glass.

that is what i use and that is what i like no need for the comments......love l o v e

 

i use meguires in the burgundy bottles, so far only done the cleaner (had a tar/sap issue) and the car shined! It's been 2 weeks and the car needs a wash but still feels super smoothe.

 

I agree the final detailer is awesome but its not exactly a wax... works really good for getting all that extra crap .

 

klasse all in one is a sealant

also, clay bar isn't a waste on a new car. do the hand in the plastic bag test, i can totally guarantee you, that you will feel some definite bumps all over your car, especially towards the bottom, i know i have them on mine, damn winter

 

well if you have 3 hours to waste claybaring your car i guess go for it but new paint doesnt need it. Your car comes wetsanded there isn't a need for it. NOT WORTH THE TIME OR MONEY FOR THE RESULTS... sure it get a little smoother but for how long... but if it makes you feel better go for it.

 

has anyone tried shining monkey?? works great

 

Claying may be needed even on some new cars, I know mine needed it for sure. I'm not to sure what was on my front fenders but from day one they were never glass smooth like the rest of my car. Last weekend I picked up a clay bar and some detailing spray and gave that a try on the fenders. After claying them for a min or two they felt like glass smooth. I've also had the car for a couple months and detailed it (Wash, Cleaner, Polish, Wax) a few times and the fenders were never 100% smooth, til the clay. I say feel you paint, if it's not 100% smooth give a clay bar a try, I'm so glad I did. You should only need to clay you car a couple times a year at most, and it doesn't really take that much time to do.

 

it takes about 20 mins max to clay a whole car
