Do i need to re-clay?

[tlsole]

Hey guys,

 

Well i am waiting for my PC to come in, in the meantime i had clay bared and had attempted to remove swirls by hand a few days ago. It didn't do the trick . So now i'm just waiting for the PC. My questions is, do i need to re-clay before i reapply swirl and haze? Or will a proper wash do?

 

Another questions comparing products (not sure if its ok to bring up but...), Meguiars SwirlX vs Adams Swirl and Haze remover. Can anyone tell me which one is more aggressive? Or is it about the same?

 

Thanks guys!

I would say that SHR is more aggressive. Your clay job should be fine after a couple of days. Just wash it and do the baggy test to make sure its fine.

If the surface feels rough, time to "clay it".

Like Shane said...did you do the baggy test?

I did and some spots are smooth, and some little areas are slightly rough, i guess ill just clay those areas or should i just redo the whole car?

If you have some rough areas, then you need to still clay those. You want the entire surface smooth before you go on to the next step.

You really want to have the surface as smooth as possible. The most high hit areas are the flat surfaces of the car and behind the the wheels/tires.

I'm just curious, you used the shr and reveve by hand and it dident get rid of the swirled spots or you just clayed ?

[tlsole]

Yeah, by hand they were still noticeable in the sun.. My paint is pretty bad, It will require a DA

[NightMare Silverado]

Ok. I had light-mild micro scratching across tge entire car and I took care of 90% of it by hand. I really want a PC but I don't have the $ yet.
