Buffing or clay bar?

Berndog12 · 03-05-2003, 01:47 AM

Ok so Ive been reading about the claybar. My paint is a little rough looking. To get a little bit better look to it is it better to get it buffed or claybar it myself? Thanks

I used a claybar today for the frist time and it worked out great. I have a newer truck but it was a bit rough especially after this winter.

Here is a pic...

I also usedan orbital buffer with a coat of cleaner wax and the gold class finisher wax.

I have a feeling that claybar only works well for newer paint jobs. I did mine and saw no difference. My paint is eleven years old.

I only see a difference when I wax it.
