"Claying" the car.

[TagnuT]

Thanks for that 182_blue. I clayed my car for the first time last year and what a result
At first I was cr***ing myself in case I botched it up

I clayed my front wings, bonnet and bumper and machine polished them on saturday.  So smooth and the metallic flake is awesome.  Nice to see my 3.5 yr diamond black gti with not one swirl in sight.  Took 5 hours.  Planning on doing it in 4 stages as i dont have the time or energy to do the car in one go

Stolen and stickied in the detailing section!
