Paint contaminants are airborne problems caused by road salt, grime, bugs, etc. that can get stuck in the exterior paint. Some of these will come off with washing after a short period of time. However, others dig into the surface and remain, slowly degrading the clear coat of your car.
Furthermore, new vehicles sometimes require car paint decontamination as well.
To determine whether you need to perform this process, check to see if the surface is rough and bumpy. If so, you need to follow these steps:
How To Use clay bar to wash your car.
The first step – wash your car. With a multitude of options, you can wash it yourself, visit an automated car wash, or see a professional detailer. However, some of these methods of cleaning are more recommended because they could cause damage to your car over time.
After cleaning, the surface is ready for clay. It is important to clay your car in sections. First, divide a 2-foot section and spray the area with a lubricant. Working on a wet surface is required when clay barring a vehicle to avoid paint damage.
Rub the clay bar in small, circular motions along the damp section, repeating the process until it runs smoothly over the surface. Afterward, wipe the clayed area with a microfiber towel. For any residue left behind, simply spray it with the lubricant and wipe the surface.
Finalizing
Once you have finished the entire process, polishing and waxing your vehicle will extend the life. Polishing your car creates more of a glossy finish, and waxing will help protect your car from those road contaminants you just removed.
