So I was waiting for some quotes for mugs I'm looking into for the forum yesterday afternoon and I decided to spend my afternoon claybar-ing and waxing my car. This was my first time EVER using a claybar, I've never done it before... I have waxed, but never claybar-ed...
I first washed the car. Then, I used the "Mother's" clay bar kit, which comes with 2x80g clay bars, 1x a microfiber towel, and the quickdetailer to lubricate. I then applied Meguiars Canaubra Wax with some applicator pads. I took care of the wax/claybar as I do the wash of the car, from top of the car to the bottom, one panel at a time
I also used some Turtle Wax long last tire shine and Meguiars Hot Rimz Rim Cleaner.
I was in the middle of doing this, and twice I was approached by neighbours, one said "I always see you with you car!! What are you doing now?" And when I explained, she was like "Can I bring you my car next week?"
Another one, who walked by just as I was finishing up was like "Wow, your car looks great!! How many miles does it have on it??" And when I told her, she was floored at how great it looked
I love getting compliments for my car
Here are some pics of the car after everything was done:
These pictures were intentionally over-exposed, as to try and capture the shine

In the rear quarterpanel, it REALLY looked AMAZING
, and it was smooth as silk!!

The white residue on the rear window plastic is from a previous polish job in which I didn't tape things up properly
