I drove over stripped highway and it was raining. All kinds of crap stuck to my wheels and rear of car when dried. Had no choice but to clay even though opti coated and besdmaker topped. Fwiw Paint gloss is a excellent clay lube.
Next question is more like adding kindlin to the clay debate. When doing these seasonal clay process must we do a polish afterwards, many are concerned with micro-marring. Personally I think it really depends on the view of the owner.
Same applies to coated vehicles, or will it knock down the coating faster? Theoretically, the coating should also give some protection from the micro marring that can come from claying, no?
FAQ episode suggestion: When have your pads seen thier last panel, that us when to discard a pad, what signs of wear and tear do we look for on the various types, foam, microfiber, wool, etc.. Please bring in show and tell pads ( if you don't remember what that is, ask Gabe)
Great content as usual. Could you discuss "Hard" vs "Soft" paint? It would be good to know how to tell which one you're dealing with besides doing a test section.
Thanks buddy

Do you have to polish after you clay
Is it appropriate to clay a ceramic coated car every 6 months? Or should chemical decontamination with Tar and Iron removers be sufficient?
