Contamination can consist of tiny metallic particles from rail dust, brake dust and industrial fallout; or non-metallic substances such as tree sap, bird droppings or insect residue. It affects all paint finishes and can cause serious damage when left untreated. Surprisingly, even brand-new cars and trucks can suffer from paint contamination. Metallic contamination is perhaps the worst offender; whilst stuck into the paint surface it corrodes and expands leading to the onset of paint film destruction.

Paint contamination can be felt as a rough or gritty texture on the freshly cleaned paint's surface.

This contamination cannot be removed by washing, waxing and/or polishing.

To assess the degree of contamination on you car's finish simply rub your fingers gently over the freshly washed paint - to magnify the sensation place a piece of cellophane beneath your finger tips and gently rub back and forth - if your paint needs to be clayed you will feel the gritty texture. It is usual to find that horizontal panels such as bonnet roof and boot lid are the most affected.

auto-clay removes these particles effortlessly from contaminated surfaces leaving a glass smooth ultra clean finish perfectly prepared for the application of waxes and other final stage products.


Auto-clay Quick Guide

* Run your fingers over you freshly washed and dried paint work. Feel for a rough, gritty texture, this is caused by embedded particles. Bonnets are often most contaminated.
* If you can feel these particles atomise a fine mist of clean tap water over a 2-3 square feet area, using a plant mister or suitable spray.
* Glide the clay bar over the wet surface, properly lubricated clay will move effortlessly just like an ice hockey puck on ice.
* You may well hear the contamination at first, this will quickly reduce as you move the bar back-and-forth. Keep the bar moving until the noise has gone
* Check again with you finger tips to check that all the contamination was removed.
* Once you car’s paint is glass smooth - and it really will be - use Sealant/Wax to seal the pores and provide a deep gloss shine.
