clay bared the car today
and i must say its the best thing ive ever done. its been really rough on some panels like sand paper when i got i out of the body shop. but i clayed it today and gave it a coat of cleaner wax and its smooth as glass. so anybody wondering or not having success with it. this is a testamonial that it indeed works when used properly.

My brother used to do his Camaro all the time.. I found more improvement with buffing/waxing than anything.. Same amount of work, too.

A clay bar is always a great idea. It makes a perfect surface for a polish/wax.

I did this using "Mother's Clay Bar" and the car was so smooth. I thought the polish/wax came out better after this process.
