I have 5000 mi on my Gcoupe black. I get alot of sap here its not the bad eating sap but still leaves the little dots. My hood feels rouch even after a good wash.
I have never clay bar before so I do not know if I should do it so early.
If so can somone tell me what I will need and maybe a good product to buy thanks..

 

I use clay magic clay.. u can buy those at auto zone.. just spray and go over with clay...

 

Most autoparts stores will carry the clay bar and lube
required to complete the job. The MOST important
part of the job is following the instructions to the
letter! Sometimes it's better to let a pro do the job
if you've never done detail work before.

 

Here is a great write up on using a clay bar for beginners: http://www.guidetodetailing.com/arti...p?articleId=14

 

I clayed my G the first weekend that I had it. If you use plenty of lube it is almost impossible to do any damage. If you are not sure, use more. The clay should just glide over the paint. Don't use any pressure other than the weight of the clay.

To answer your question, it's never too "early" to clay. So much crap gets on the car between the factor and the car. On top of that you have 5000 miles. It is definitely time. After that do it once or twice a year.

Just make sure you protect the car afterward. I used the Mother's three step system then topped it with a coat of Megs NXT. It looks FRIGGEN awesome. Thats a wash, dry, clay, polish, seal/glaze, wax, wax.

Car looks sick

Thanks guys going to do it tomorrow.. Ghaleon that G looks sweet

 

You can clay bar your car after you buy it. Believe me it helps!

 

i clayed my car first week of owning as well.. now cleaning is so simple and always smooth

 

I clayed my G with about 9K miles on it. Only becuase i bought in the winter i had to wait until spring to clay it.

 

dang, hahah i need to clay my car i havent done it since i bought my car which was over a year ago hahaha!

 

As part of my "new car prep", I clay the car - it's the most important part imo. Cars are shipped on a boat then by rail; they get lots of junk on them. I always recommend claying as soon as you get a car.
