I gotta clay my car. How long does it take to clay and then wax again?
Also, nice tints, too bad that's illegal in IL to have the front windows that dark.
All I've done is just wax or polish mine, but never have clayed it.

I clayed my car in about an hour .. then polishing was a different story ... keep in mind I do this professionally.

Like any precautionary measure, there will always be a scenario where it proves pointless. Having an ADT-monitored house alarm does not guarantee that a house will not be burglarized, yet ADT still has millions of customers.
I have never clayed my car myself because I am too lazy, but I did have a local detailing shop do it for me. It was definitely worth it; the paint was as smooth as glass after it was done!
EDIT: Coconut, what part of Florida are you from? That area looks familiar...

How much did you pull off with the clay? My ASM is 14 months old, I haven't had to clay yet.

I've had the car for about 4 months now, and this is my second clay job. Not much contamanents(sp?) were pulled off, but it just makes me feel better about my car.

I can't recall the details, but I believe it is possible to clay your car too often, leading to damage to the clearcoat. I'd do some research on that if I were you...

Just keep a good coat of wax on it. I don't hard wax everytime. But I do spray wax everytime. The paint is slippery as shit.
