Do I need to clay again?

[GaresTaylan]

Hey everyone. I finally set aside time this past weekend to do a clay, swirl & haze, revive and wax on my ride.

 

After I did the 2 bucket wash, clay and 2nd two bucket wash... I had a family emergency come up and needed to stop. Luckily everything has come out ok.

 

Today though, I was thinking about the job I started the other day. Since I didn't get to finish the process... will I be able to just do a 2 bucket wash and pick up where I left off or should I clay again?

Just do the baggie test and check it out. If you just did last week, you should be GTG.

Joe, after you clay you don't have to do another 2 bucket wash you can go straight to polishing. Post up some pics when done. I really like your car!

^^^^ What they said, same thing happened to me while I was doing work on another car, baggie test then wash and GTG!

Thanks for all the great information, guys. I love these forums. I will also work on getting some new pics up of my car this weekend.

 

I have another question for you. My wife just picked up a new vehicle this past weekend. I performed the baggy test on it and while I can feel the bumps in some small spots, its nowhere near as bad as my vehicle was.

 

This afternoon I was planning on giving it a wash and wax. I need to purchase some more Adam's clay before I can get around to hers - but in the meantime - should I just use the buttery wax or will I see any benefit from applying Revive Polish as well? The paint looks great, so I see no need for a Swirl & Haze. From my understanding the Revive Polish can really be used to enhance the overall look of the paint at any time - not just after a clay, correct?

I would go with just the Buttery until after you complete the claying.
