Johna1 Posted June 11, 2006 Report Share Posted June 11, 2006 I would defos wah it again as you cant risk moving any left clay around and sealing i under the wax etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cheechy Posted June 12, 2006 Report Share Posted June 12, 2006 I'm dont wash again after claying myself. I just make sure that the I've used plenty of detail spray so I dont get any clay residue. I then use a waffle weave cloth to take off the detail spray.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bpsmith Posted June 13, 2006 Report Share Posted June 13, 2006 I cant believe you would contemplate getting the car washed at a different location to where you would be clay barring it! Just imagine all the dirt and grit that would get over it by the time you got home and then the clay bar rubbing it in hence creating lovely scratches and swirls! I would not even consider polishing it after driving between wash and polish for that reason but the claying would be a definite no no!?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
