    I clayed my car once...it's only got 20K miles so it doesn't need it. But I usually claybar once or twice each year. The results are amazing! But you need to be careful that you're not dragging around any particles because you could easily scratch the paint.


    I've never tried Zaino. Seems like too much work - IMO. But I know quite a few people who swear by it. I prefer Pinnacle and Meguiar's products.

    Thanks CR :)

    I'll definitely give the claybar a bash. My car is now 18mths old so probably lost a little lustre and this may be a good move. I think that I'll also order some of that wax you used. The results are fantastic (your photos of the 350). Wow.

    No prob.

    If I were you, I would just use a glaze instead of a claybar *since your car is new-ish).

    Afyter you glaze, if your car is not smooth as glass then you might want to clay.

    Post some pics when you're done!

    It was a toss-up between a new Mazda 6 and my Honda when I bought it in March of this year.

    How much damage to your Mazda?

    Nice S2K! :D

    My buddy has one of those. They're tiny - my head was actually above the top of the windshield when I drove it.
