What is Claying or Clay Bar?
The process of claying a vehicle prior to laying down wax or polishing is extremely important. It removes any contamination on the paint surface. Washing doesn’t completely do this. Washing just removes the surface dirt, not the contamination embedded in the paint surface. This is why after washing your car the paint still feels rough. But after claying, the vehicle paint is silky smooth. This allows me to lay down a coat of wax that actually bonds to the paint surface, not the contamination on the surface. All vehicles should be clayed prior to polishing or laying down a premium wax. I don’t charge extra for claying like many other companies do, it is built into my value priced service menu.
