I spent a little over 5 hours claying my car today and what a diffrence! I know on white you wouldnt really notice it as much but it made a big diff in the look of the paint. I would reccomend doing this to everyone espeshally those with darker colors.

 

The only thing I'm concerned with is that our cars are older and the clear coat is not as strong as it used to be. Is there any danger in damaging the paint when doing this on an older car?

 

I clayed my 15 year old VW, which had deplorable paint at best, and it really helped alot. When I first got my Max, I clayed it, and it made teh surface smooth as glass again.

 

Where can you get clay?

 

I got mine at walmart for $14. Pepboys and Autozone wanted $20. It it is well worth way more than either of those prices. It is rather time consuming, remember DO NOT DROP THE CLAY BAR. If you do it's probably not safe to use it.

 

i know this is on a 5th gen (newer paint job) but look at the before and after pic http://forums.maxima.org/showthread....hreadid=128302
