So you used Dawn to get the wax off? Thats scary. And what did you use for lubricant with the clay bar? What kind of clay bar? That made a massive difference. Soon as my car is functioning and not being groped by greasy hands every day, I'm gonna do that.

Persoanlly I find the car shampoo works better because you can cover a bigger area and not worry about hitting a "dry spot".

Yup, clay bar works awesome....when I do the rear bumper I am always amazed at how incredbily dirty it gets.
If you want to see even better results, get some polishes and a porter cable and that bitch will shine

so i bought the mothers kit clay bar, lubricant, wax what order do you do the cleaning in ? Wash, then lubricate and clay bar, then wax and polish?
