Finally was able to put the clay bar on the car Sunday. On the Arctic Silver, I did not notice much difference in appearance. But to the touch, it was night and day.
First I washed the car. First wash of the year. Then I applied the Mother's claybar with the Mother's detail spray. At first it did not feel like anything was happening and I was starting to feel like a schmuck rubbing a piece of clay on my car. But after sliding my hand on applied and non-applied surfaces there was a huge difference. Then I washed it again. I heard there were two theories about whether to wash it after the claybar, so I just washed it anyway. Then I applied some Zymol car wax (I don't know what the "good" wax is, and this bottle looked the coolest so that is what I bought.
Car looks amazing. Better than it has looked in my 18 months of ownership. I'm very happy with how it looks on a 16 year old paint job.
Now I just have to figure out the right stuff to clean the top. It's very grey-ish and I'm not sure if that is just dust and dirt or just sun fading. Probably a little of both. I only need to clean the front section of the top as I'm not planning on putting the top up for quite a while. I love Chicago summers.
ETA: I'll get some pics up tomorrow.
