Thinking of using clay bar then waxing. Which brand do you use? Thinking of getting out the clay bar and spending an afternoon cleaning up Miss Vicky. Later I will get ambitious and give her a wax job.
Which brand do you fancy? Leatherback top: What product should I use to clean and seal? Bill |
Re: Thinking of using clay bar then waxing. Which brand do you use? I assume Miss Vicky is a car? :D

Re: Thinking of using clay bar then waxing. Which brand do you use? When exactly should you use a clay bar? I've never used one and my wax efforts seem to produce the desired results......

Re: Thinking of using clay bar then waxing. Which brand do you use? I use Meguiar's, they have a pre-packaged system. Huge difference in cleansing than just waxing.

Re: Thinking of using clay bar then waxing. Which brand do you use? Hey BillEbob, I have used Meguires . unless your paint has overspray or other crap stuck to it I wouldn't bother. its to much work, if you miss a spot with the clay it shows up after waxing. if you have overspray or crap by all means clay first and use the detailer that comes with is a lubricate as clay guides over surface. it works well if you need it.

Re: Thinking of using clay bar then waxing. Which brand do you use? How does that clay bar stuff work out on rust? Maybe I should try that on Elvira, but does it involve any work? Cause I don't like work. Besides, I don't want Elvira getting any airs of grandure.

Re: Thinking of using clay bar then waxing. Which brand do you use? I like Meguiers stuff. Doesnt leave a streaky film usually and if it does a clean cloth quickly buffs it off to a brilliant shine.
They sell a special spray wax detailer stuff (i think turtle wax brand) that is meant for black vehicles to give it a deeper black look. I use it on my black 2017 silverado and it does make a noticeable difference. Whatever you use make sure it says it helps prevent UV damage. Not all do. Also a quick tip if you get dried white wax on things that it shouldnt be those magic erasers (get store brand for 1/2 the cost) work very well on removing the dried wax along seams, textured surfaces etc. clay bars do leave a buttery smooth surface but your paint better be good - no rust. Rust will embed in the clay and scratch the crap out of the rest of the car. Also if you fumble and drop the bar on the ground throw it away as it will get 1000 rocks dust etc stuck in it and scratch the paint. |

Yes, as seen in avatar, Miss Vicky is a '31 Victoria Leatherback with a tan top. I'm beginning to see "blotchy" areas on the top and not at all sure of how to clean/treat it. Thanks ALL others!! Meguires it is! BUT, what about top? Bill |
