it depends what thespecs are. Claybar is a paint cleaner more than anything. but done properly it will smooth out the paint nicely

Try the Ice Liquid Clay Bar, i think 350rs tried it, and i swear by it, although you will need to re-wax your car after the fact, but thats not too bad lol. Good luck man

1. Rinse
2.Liquid ClayBar
3.Rinse, thoroughly
4.Wax
5. Detail Spray

Follow those steps in that fashion and youll be made in the shade, oh BTW you can use all of the ICE products in direct sunlight no joke
