What came in the Post Today?

that was what sold me, i didn't want to have to buy a special lube as well... plus you get nearly twice as much as other bars for similar price.

I'm a bit apprehensive though, as never clayed before, and have read it's quite firm and takes a lot of kneading to warm up... and then need to be gentle with it to avoid marring.

We'll see how it goes in the morning! :)

Just have a spray bottle on hand to keep the paintwork wet, once you get into a rhythm it's easy enough. If you start to feel any resistance at all just stop & spray more water on. It'd take quite a bit of effort to get it to bite into the paintwork I reckon.

Be warned, you won't stop stroking the paintwork once you've finished :D

:thumbs: Hahaha, I had a little stroke of Splinter's "Moo" at the Ace Cafe (after he'd clayed), and the paint did feel smooth as glass!

i don't have an empty clean spray bottle though, I was just planning on using the 'mist' function of my hose gun. Can't imagine that would cause any issues.

That's a rare treat Steve! Haha. Last time she was clay'd was just after I bought it like 6 years ago! And probably won't be done for a long time yet.

She just got a wash and spray wax and window polish ready for JAE. Will throw in so e quick detailed and I will be set!

;) Hahaha, i'm sure she'll look great. Imagine it must be a bit fiddly to clay/polish with all the graphics?

I think my T-Sport Celica would have really benefitted from a clay as it spent a lot of time parked under a tree. I'm hoping the Yaris benefits as well, but it's in pretty good condition on the whole.

The weather's a bit 'meh' though... fingers crossed the sun comes out at some point!!
