Our Club has a "Wax & Chat" session every other week at my place, coffee, donuts, and mostly bullshit, and we clay bar a car each session.

This beautiful C3 turned out great.

Nice...how many cars do you get in before you run out of donuts and willpower?

Only do one car a session, usually everyone brings donuts. I make them take them home after the day is over. I don't need any more than I already ate. :D

clay barring a car adds about a foot to the depth of the paint.

Just curious...y'all clay bar then wax it right? It doesn't take all that long to clay bay. The car looks beautiful! :yesnod:

exactly, Beadist. think of the clay bar as an eraser and the car as a piece of paper with pencil marks on it. the clay pulls all the dirt out of the finish so the wax works better.

Hey Ducky:kimblair: I love the finish it leaves, but I can do my car, glass included in about 1 1/2 hours. Wax takes me a bit longer. I was wondering if I was doing it wrong. If you had 6 guys working on one car it could be clay barred and waxed quite fast.

I need to clay mine. But that's not going to happen before spring.

That's a great Idea,maybe I can talk my club into it,all they ever want to do is go out to eat.
