I know I said I liked this find before but I decided to try something from it and figured this is as good of a place as any to post the results.

My baby is white and I have been trying for a while to get the grey spotty discolouration, caused by the exhuast, off the back bumper but had no luck. Tried various cleaners, even kero, no luck nothing even moved it slightly it was an eye sore and one I was beginning to think I would have to learn to live with.

So I see this clay stuff the guy talks about on the link, never heard of it before (maybe I've been living under a rock I dunno) read up a bit more on it in the same forum and decided to give it a crack. WOW

I went down to Repco walked out about $35 poorer with a Maguiars Clay Detailing System and gave it a crack. I must say I'm bloody impressed. took some before and after pics hope they do it justice.

Before



After


I only did the top section so far and I'm a happy camper....Im off to finish the job. Thanks meatbag!

That should be titled 'a geeks guide to car cleanliness'

Was way over the top, i was waiting for -
"after i'd completed all the above steps and lost 3 days of my time, i salivated over the car for a further 3 hours before blowing my load all over my shiny glistening paintwork!!"

that dude needs to find a mrs and get a new hobby!!
