What about using a clay bar and then waxing?


Clay bar only removes contaminants from the surface of the paint without actually cutting into and smoothing out the clear coat.

You will have an extremely smooth paint job and a very clean car with a clay/wax job. But when the sun hits it, you will still see swirl marks. If you want to remove those, compounding and polishing is necessary.

cool. Thanks, that's really all I want to do, slick it up and be able to wax it and make it shite. At an angle now, it looks shiny, but straight on it's dull. I've neglected it a bit. It's an 07 and I don't think it has a clear coat, white.

How is the stuff removing anything from the paint if there is clear coat?
