New fan of the Claybar

I have spent the past 2 1/2 hours dawn washing my car & following that up with a claybar (Mothers, not Zaino) All I can say is WOWWWW! It makes the surface feel like glass, I couldnt believe it... I was kinda sceptikal at first, but.. I am now a firm believer... I am following this up with Mother's Cleaner/wax, and then several coats of Mothers Pure Carnuba Wax, I will post pics when I am done, The reason I went with Mothers instead of Zaino was the price and availability. I got the complete kit of Mothers (claybar, lubricant spray, and cleaner/wax) for $14 then bought the pure carnuba wax for $10. Anyways, just wanted to share a few recommendations.... 1)stay out of the sun when using the claybar 2) do a small section at a time, and when you are done that section, wipe with a clean terry cotton cloth 3) mold your claybar after each section (hood, door, roof) this will prevent it from getting really contaminated. Hope that helps anyone thinking about using a claybar. Also, I only used 1/3 of the bar that was supplied in the kit, the rest I am saving in a ziplock bag for future use.... peace out.... CHris.

Looking forward to the pics.

I remember thinking how does clay do anything but i bought a claybar about 3 years ago (forget what brand) and loved it. Use it all the time now. One tip for storing it besides using the zip lock bag is to spray it with the lub. stuff so it doesnt stick to the bag otherwise its a real mess

Until you get the sand out of your clit.... you can "keep your fucking mouth shut" Those are big words... as I have said before... I am in it for looks, not speed.... and trust me.... you can talk shit all you want over the internet.... but, you dont want any.... you couldnt fade me....
PS- You want your shirt in small or X-small ??? :sqntfawk:

I don't see how. I'm Asian. I'm not offended. But I don't think thats what the argument is over.

This will be the last I respond to your adolescent remarks, I think the moderator closed it because you whined about it, 2nd off... I don't even wear abercrombie's clothes... 3rd, If I have something to say or sell, or whatever.... I will post it... If you would have read the beginning of my original post I said "I know that this should probably be in 'black market' but, I thought I seen a conversation about it here.... " As far as growing up, I am probably older & more educated than you... and I have no grudge.... you could even come to Jax & we could go out & have some drinks.... I already said "sorry If I pissed in anyones cheerios" once... and I will say it again.... I didnt mean to offend or upset anyone.... I will let in end there.

I used the clay bar (mothers) about 3 weeks ago and I hated it. I dont think it did anything except make more little paint chips on my hood. Good thing Wal-Mart takes refunds

Hah yeah I need a venom400 for my windows or some shit. I go to McDonalds and halfway there I hit the window button. If I hit a red light on the way there, it might be down by the time I pull up

You two guys are funny (f0de and chris) Where's the picture of the retarded kid winning the race? I think mofo has that one. That sums up this whole rivalry.
