    you clean the car off and put it on like wax? whats the hard part? Only real step that is difficult is claybaring, but that is a prefered method on any major detailing.


    and when it hazed, are you sure you didn't forget to wipe it off after it dryed :)

      The paint on my car is custom, cleared and buffed to a mirror shine. No claybarring ever needed. Like I said, it put a nasty haze on it (that would not wipe off) and it was a nightmare because black shows EVERYTHING. It took me several washings to get it off. It could have been because I use a polish/cleaner and the two possibly didn't bond together creating a haze.. who knows. All I know for certain, is that it worked like **** and it's not worth the cost. But to each his own. I'll stick with what works. :)

        If your car has a clearcoat then it needs to be clayed.

          Why?
          (Keep in mind the car is not a daily driver. The polish/cleaner that I use leaves the finish smooth as glass with no dirt whatsoever.)
          What does the claybar contain that any other cleaner does not?

            A claybar will pull enviromental fall out and some other things off the clearcoat that a paint cleaner probably won't.

            Since your car is garaged and not daily driven then you probably won't have to use a claybar very often, but using it once or twice a year certainly wouldn't hurt.

              Ultralites are nearly 25% lighter than the stock 1.6 rockers and 8% lighter than the SLP aluminum...
