Steps?
If I'm going to clay my car...is there any reason to polish it prior to waxing?
Thanks.
Thanks.

Just to get rid of swirls and such... otherwise, no problem waxing after claying.

Between claying and waxing wipe the car down with a 50/50 mix of rubbing alcohol & water to give the wax/sealant a good surface to be applied to.

Meh. I just did wash, clay, polish, sealant
Ran out if time...and my back is shot after that. Still have to do the wheels, glass, and interior.
Sigh

Biggest bitch was taping off my stripes and then wiping down the shit that got stuck along the edges.

But supposedly, it is supposed to do everything a clay does
I guess one could should use IronX if the Nanoskin doesn't.
It's just that Nanoskin is so much easier to use than clay.

I asked the question in Autogeek and the response I have received was that both clay and nanoskin will remove iron contaminants.
