    Quick question . After Claying & Using the Clay Luber . Do you give it a quick water Rinse and then Apply The Wax ? Or Can You Apply Wax Right After Using the clay luber ?

    • @ChemicalGuys

      Hi Jonathan! Ensure the surface is totally clean by using Wipe Out to prep the paintwork for a coat of your favorite wax.

    After clay is it necessary to use wipe out before a ceramic coating is put on?

      Hey! To ensure the surface is totally clean and to promote a long lasting bond it is best to use Wipe Out before applying coatings.

      Highly recommend at least a 1 step polish before the coating just to remove small imperfections like miscroscratches and swirls aswell as light marring a clay bar might leave.

      Hello! After the clay bar process you can choose polish the vehicle or move on to applying coatings.

    • @Schmitzelhaus
      @Schmitzelhaus Рік тому +3

      I would never clay a car without polishing it afterwards because claying a car will often times leave some microscratches.
      Also is it the perfect opportunity to do so because the clay will take off even the smallest residues that were on the paint, so you can achieve the best results.
      And then you seal it in perfect condition. 👌
