quick question! t-cut and clay?!
« on: 29 June 2009, 11:53 »
Just washing the car - in the wash and dry process but next is T-Cut and Clay but which should I do first?


T-Cut followed by clay or clay followed by T-Cut??

Thanks!

Clay, then T-Cut. But be carefull with the T-Cut.

Is T-cut really that bad / potentially harmful? Spent €85 yesterdag in Halfords to stock up on "quality" detailing products so will dump most of the other crap Ive been using over the years. Bought meguiars clay bar kit, autoglm srp polish, meguiars carnuba wax plus other bits and bobs. (know theres prob better products out there but will start with these)

Anyways have T-cut in the cleaning bag, bought it ages ago. My fathers fiesta is completly faded so was thinking about using t-cut? Havent used a clay bar / autoglm srp so not sure what results i will get with these better products.

Am i best to dump t-cut and follow wash, clay, autoglm srp etc etc to try and restore the fiesta? My own golf then to follow.

Cheers

If the Fiesta is faded to fubar then go ahead with the T-Cut, but try to work it for a while so it can break down properly. Then use as many coats of SRP as you can handle. That should do the trick.
you can't go wrong with SRP by hand really.

On an old car t-cut will be fine, will ruin the paint of any newer car though!
