clay bar
#1
Hi Smile

The paintwork on my car is terrible!

I have polish and then some dodo juice purple haze wax.. any suggestions on a clay bar I can use?
Also anyone got any tips on deep polishing etc, processes??
#2
real genuine clay bar is massive expensive...

Liquid claybar is a waste of time and energy. You can pick up the dodo claybar, 2 bars for about £10

another vote for the bilt hamber. Only need water as lube too... So easy to work with

Dodo juice blue velvet is a well and truely epic wax. Smells great, looks great and lasts for ever. I last waxed mine with one coat in july and if i clean the dirt off, it still beads a bit!

Fold the clay over Itself lots. Or you will just put loads of little scratches everywhere.

Keep well lubricated with water, clay lube, or quick detailer.

And if you don't plan to polish it afterwards I'd wipe down each panel after claying to stop those annoying water marks.
