[QUOTE="cobravenom39, post: 2429214, member: 14811"] Oh boy....I would post a link here, but sometimes newbies don't understand the lingo. Here goes: As a car's finish is exposed to the elements (doesn't matter if your car is under a cover in your garage) it accumulates airborne particles and fallout from contaminents in the atmosphere. These particles embed themselves in the paint, and wether or not you notice it or not, they dull the finish (you can feel them if you run your hand over the paint, especially if you've never claybar-ed). Running a bar of clay over them, with a lubricant[any spray detailer or even soapy water] of course, will transfer the particles from your finish into the clay, leaving a smooth finish to the touch. The clay can also be used to remove old wax before a fresh detail, and it can be used to remove tar from the body and even the windshield and headlamps. Clay bars can be purchased either by themselves or in kits with the lubricant necessary for application. This process has practically become a standard in the detailing world, and I would not even wax your car until you do this. I would not recommend doing it more than once a year if you keep your car polished and waxed, and never bring it to an auto wash. Just do it, you will be amazed with the results. [/QUOTE]
