Sounds great, I'll have to try that next weekend. Just another thing I was wondering how often you need to replace the claybar.
it lasts me a long time (read, at least a season). I also don't use it with wax on the car. I always strip off the wax first to make sure I get all the contaminants off the car so I have the smoothest base to work with. if you drop it though, throw it away immediately.

where do you get mothers wax?? ive looked all over around here in stores. all i can find are wheel polishes and a cleaner wax from mothers.
I'm surprised that they don't carry the regular waxes if they carry the other stuff. all the places near me carry it

you can find out more here too www.mothers.com

That really works well. On Saturday I used dish soap to take off the wax and contaminants, then claybarred. I got alot of the fine scratches that have been bugging me out. After that I used Nu Finish Scratch Doctor in some places, and used the Nu Finish glaze wax polish thing all over.
