Same for me. I clayed my car for the first time today and the back bumper had alot of build up. Maybe its from when you drive your car in the rain and all the dirt gets pushed to the back?

i used the same video a while ago which helped. I bought one of those clay kits that comes with clay and detail spray (for lube). I only use 1/3 of each clay bar because i think you really dont need the entire bar unless your car is really dirty.

I've been claying my cars for close to 10 years when I was introduced to it by a bud that owns a detail shop. Our rear bumper/deck lids are a haven for crud and it's useless to polish them without claying. After having used almost everyones clay I discovered Griots Paint Cleaning Clay www.griotsgarage.com along with detail spray it works the best. It's big enough so I only use half at a time. I use a cleaner then Zymol concourse wax after the clay process with amazing results....that's why her name is SLICK!
