Been a nice day today, decided to give the car a decent wash. After seeing this clip on how to clay bar (http://youtube.com/watch?v=yfEfLGL59GI) i decided to give it a shot.

It has come up awesome. Watch the video clip, as thats exactly how it works and exactly how mine turned out. It's very simple to do and give you an excellent finish.

To do a proper job you will want to wax the car afterwards. I got a Meguiars kit for $35, which comes with the Quick Detailer, and enough clay bar for a few washes. Can't recommend it enough, works a treat.

Before i started, when running my hand over the painwork is was slightly rough, and made a noise when running my hand over it. It's now dead silent and very very smooth.

Here is a few dodgy photo's.

Once you start claying you will never go back, like you said it feels like glass after

I couldn't believe it when i was using it, totally stoked with it. It's amazing when you brush your hand over it before/after.

Best product i have ever used!

Have to be happy with that,top job.

i've clay barred mine recently (thanks to Bernie's constant hassling) He showed me what to do, altho its pretty easy... and I was so happy with the results.. altho, my car gets so dirty at home... its well due for another round..

looks good Rich, white looks so good when its clean, glasslike!

Other than being something for people with too much time, what exactly is the difference. Someone's talking about glass. So would it make it easier to clean or anything?

Watch the clip ..

It's hugely worth it, give it a shot.
