Description
AutoClay Soft is best if the paint is in good condition, if you like to clay your vehicle frequently or indeed if the weather is cold.
Why use a clay-bar?
Assess the degree of embedded metallic and brake dust debris that has entered the surface of your paint film by gently rubbing the paint with fingertips. Feel for the grittiness that these damaging particles impart to paint films. Using Bilt-Hamber Clay-Bars – regular, medium or soft – you will effortlessly remove particles, leaving the paint glass-smooth. Discoloring road film will also be gently lifted. Claying will make a world of difference when lubricated with plenty of water and hardly any pressure. The bar glides like an ice hockey puck, and is pleasant and satisfying to use.
Not only does the paint feel and look a lot better once clayed, but the removal of these objects sticking to the surface allows the next stages of paint care to progress far more smoothly. As now cleansers, waxes and polishes glide across the surface far more easily. It is highly recommended that before using a clay bar the paint is pre-treated with korrosol. This high activity cleaner actively removes embedded metallic particles in a simply spray on rinse off action. By removing these particles before the clay-bar is used, the bar will last longer and concentrate its action on the remaining contamination.
How to use:
Before using Auto-Clay thoroughly wash your car to remove any loose dirt. Direct sunlight should not fall on your car’s surface, and it’s best if the work area is relatively cool, but not cold.
To use Auto-Clay, spray water with a plant mister on a small area of your car and rub the bar back and forth with light pressure. Auto-Clay should glide across your paint, keep the paint surface wetted thoroughly. Auto-Clay must not be used dry. Listen carefully – at first you will hear the bar as it pulls the particles away from the paint, the noise and friction will disappear quickly.
After a few passes with Auto-Clay, rub your fingers over the area to feel if the surface contamination was removed. Keep rubbing until all contamination is gone. Finally, wipe the clay residue off with a soft terrycloth towel. Just like waxing, work in small areas.
What you should see coming off of the car and depositing itself on the clay bar is a reddish brown residue, this is what you want to see. As the clay bar becomes soiled, simply fold it over squash it out and keep going. Under no circumstances should the clay bar be used if dropped on the ground, inside or out! The clay bar is good for about 4 or 5 cleans on the average sized car. Once the paint is clean, wax your car immediately.
