Re: Ever use a clay bar on your car?

I did this in 2007 with Best Other.
I washed it thoroughly with Dawn dish soap and then took it to local do-it-urself car wash and washed it and rinsed it thoroughly.
Back in the driveway I spent two days clay barring the car. It is a LOT of automobile. I had a used spritzer bottle to keep a nice wet surface for the clay bar to work in. I took my time and was very thorough. It took me two days, but I'm old and tire easily.
Then I took it down to the car wash and washed and rinsed it completely again.
I was following the directions that came with the Zaino polish kit. I applied the polish as described in the instructions. Took me almost two hours to apply and then polish with a COTTON bath towel.
That was in 2007. I have not applied any more polish since then. I wash it at the local car wash at least once a week.
I do polish and wax the chrome and stainless carefully.

It still looks good, but I am thinking of polishing it again.
Six years is a long time, but you can see Best Other in several posts on this site.
