harks Posted February 17, 2014 Author Share Posted February 17, 2014 Cheers, I honestly actually haven't used clay bar on my car before, was going to pick one up tomorrow after work. I'm pretty sure I'll need to use a heavy cut polish to buff it out though, I'll need to see how the clay goes though!! So wait out I guess.

sinistaGTR Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 The clay itself may not remove it all, but will certainly aid in removing all the grease/wax and contaminants from the paint. But the cut then polish process will certainly be the one. Meguiars have a kit that wont hard your paint and has everything you need.

89CAL Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 As per your other thread. You shouldnt go jumping to conclusions and warning everyone off somewhere. It hasnt eaten your paint just heavily watermarked Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/439199-carwash-on-cnr-pickering-st-enoggera-rd/#findComment-7202963 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiwi_Phil Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 I go there all the time, never had an issue. But you used underbody cleaner? Im assuming this then got sprayed all over the car? those hoses take about 30 seconds to clear the crap out of them Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/439199-carwash-on-cnr-pickering-st-enoggera-rd/#findComment-7206130 Share on other sites More sharing options...
