First time with clay...

Clayed my car for the first time today, and goddamn it needed it!

Firstly washed down with pressure washer set low, then wash with Zymol, dryed with microfibre cloths, clayed with Meguiars Quik Clay, then washed again with zymol, then waxed with Autoglym Aqua Wax... PHEW.

Loads happier with it, needs doing again an a couple of places but i'll save that for another day!

Looks very nice. May I recommend using a quality paste wax instead of Autoglym's Aqua Wax, it is designed for car sales forecourts so the cars on display can be given a quick 'wet-look' shine, it doesn't really offer any protection.

I knew it!!! I only bought it because it was on offer, what do you suggest? i've got my beady eye on some Poorboys Natty stuff at the mo....

Liking the look of the Countach on your website!!! looks like brand new

I've never used the PoorBoys wax so I would'nt like to comment. I would recommend Collinite or R222 Concours if you are looking for something around the £20 mark. Both of the above are excellent although the R222 doesn't have the durability of the Collinite.

Thanks for the kind words, that car was a real back breaker but worth the effort.

A product like Aqua Wax does have it's place as a quick post wash wax to add that little extra shine, easy on, easy off and will add a little protection.

clayed mine couple of weeks back for first time with Meguires clay bar and then used Collinite - since then just a light hosing down to get rid of mud etc and chamois off.

These were taken last night (sorry about poor pic quality)
