Clay bar session today..

As posted in SN but thought i'd share in here too...

Had a go today and fairly pleased with the results.. although i've now discovered lots of paintwork that needs attention!

So after gathering info from here on detailing i set off on a mini version this morning,

1st stop was my neighbours to use his snow-foam.. not as thick as i would of liked but he was doing me a favour so i couldn't really complain..

before;


and after;



and this is post snow foam but pre wash..




Hosed the car down thoroughly then washed it using two bucket method and meguiars ultimate wash and wax. Also used a meguiars fibre mitt. Didn't dry car off too much then used again meguiars clay bar and quick detailer, clay bar clearly doing it's job;




and this was the finish pre-wash;



After a spell of rain I again washed it thoroughly using same products and dried her off using yes, you guessed it, meguiars drying towel.. then set about a full polish using megs tech-wax spray and buffing towel.. and this is how she turned out..;









It's difficult to get a good perspective on the difference from the pics but the surface now feels like glass to the touch and the shine far deeper. Defo going to have another go at this soon maybe using a different claybar as the megs item didn't seem to last long.. big box, small bar lol again this is my first attempt and not in the league of some of you detailers but it's my daily hack too so it'll be dirty again tomorrow..
