£23.99 halfrauds st helens.

The amount of s**t it brought up was unbelievable, now it feels as smooth as a babys bottom lol

Done matt black to be different and its always seemed to have a positive affect and makes the car stand out

Cheers for the comments guys :)

lol @ people thinkin clay is the muts nuts...It's just one part of detailing, and will look worse after...You really need to hit it with polish/Seal/wax after. Or it'll be for nothin.

Can't deny it doesn't look good tho.

I got megs quick clay.. basically, wash the car & dry it, then use shampoo & water or the quick detailer you get to wet the panel, break off a bit of clay & wipe it over.

Just keep the panel/clay wet and the clay needs to keep being turned.
If you were closer, I'd help you!
 
Looking good. I nearly clayed mine, but was running out of time, so just stuck to polishing it.

Aye, I'd imagine we've doubled megs' profits this weekend!!!

yeah polished mine afterwards to seal it in too!!
how often will it need claying?? is it just like every few months or so??

Looks clean.

How often depends on where you park etc. Best test to see if you car needs claying is to wash it and then with you hand in a clean plastic sandwich back feel if there is things stuck to the paint the washing has not removed. Once or twice a year should be fine for most.
