STOP SCRATCHING

Did you know your car probably isn’t completely clean even right after you’ve washed it? It’s true. Most cars and Exotics have tiny contaminants embedded in their clear coat, and, once they’ve bonded with your paint surface, car washes often fail to remove them. The more you drive your car, the more frequently you park outside, and the more wind you get, the more likely you are to have them. Basically, avoiding them is impossible. Finally, if you don’t remove all the contaminants from your clear coat before you wax, you’ll be waxing the tops of those contaminants, not your car in those spots. This is important because waxes and other car coatings work best when you apply them in a smooth, even layer. They won’t adhere to your clear coat as well or last as long if you apply them to a contaminated surface. The surefire way to remove all bonded contaminants from your clear coat is with a simple clay bar treatment. A clay bar is an engineered, clay-like product that pulls contaminants like water spots, brake dust, metal dust, industrial pollution and road grit from your clear coat.
When used with a clay lubricant, these contaminants come loose from your car and get stuck safely in the clay so they don’t damage your clear coat. It’s a simple step, usually taking about 30 minutes, and one that’s well worth doing for a proper car detailing. We recommend decontaminating your car with a clay bar every time you wax, which should be at least twice a year. After your car is washed and dried, clay bar the entire car before moving on to any paint correction and wax application.
