Clay bar

Let me just say, Mother's Clay bar

I've been working on the suspension and doing some under body spray painting, when it was all done I noticed (stupid me) that there was overspray all over the body of my car.

It was just the paint particles in the air, they dry a bit and stick to the clear coat semi-sticky, but enough to make my finish rough

I know that it's not there permenantly so I bust out the clay bar, that I've only used once, and man did it ever clean that crap up good.

I also got the car used and when I did the roof has never been smooth. I think whoever had it before me got overspray all over the roof and I've been living with it as I thought it was lost cause.

I've even tried putting too much wax on the roof before, to no avail...

So now that I have the clay bar out I decided to try it on the roof and OMG It's so smooth now I'm can't figure out why I didn't try that out earlier... I thought that the oversprzy on the roof was from a body shop and it wasn't comming out but man it's all gone...


MOTHER's clay bar.... the way to go.

to remove the unseen contaminents on your cars painted surfaces..
it'll also help remove some of the shyt that's really deeply inbedded into your paint too, like metallic dust

I use the Mothers clay bar. The results are amazing and your paint will be smoother than when your car was new.
