Default Clay bar = shiny black paint!

Here are some pictures of my car after I clay barred it, waxed and polished it, it was a lot of work but totally worth it with the results...

Yeah the claybar works wonders. Great for getting up water spots or acid rain. Car looks great man.

Mothers clay bar kit, came with clay bar, spray cleaner/lubricant and a cleaner wax, then I used my trusty dura gloss polish to finish things up. Thanks for the comment on my plate, I really like it too!
Thanks for the compliments!

Your car looks great. That clay bar system is the best.

Looks awesome. I have never used the clay bar system, but I think I'm going to try it. You got great results!
