Hello everyone, I don't know if this been mention before or not, I may be the only one.

I took the Gsedan out to get her clean up at the local car wash, after drying the car, I ran my finger across the car and felt this sandy feeling, it was pretty rough. was wondering does anyone know what i should do? i was thinking clay bar-N it in the spring.
I need some solid advise from the expert of g35driver

thanks

Clay bar should take car of it. Over time contaminates embed into your paint.

Clay is def the answer. If you haven't done it before, this should help.

Yes, it will def swirl or micro mar the paint. Get a california duster and let it sit out on a news paper for a least 2 days. There's a ton of paraffin wax on it that needs to come off so thats why you let it soak into the newspaper for a couple days. When you use a duster DO NOT press down, rather just let the strings hanging down just barley touching the paint and gently brush the dust off. As long as your car is 100% cooled off and you have been using a qd or wax, the dust should come right off and you won't swirl up your paint and then you can qd the car to keep the slickness up.
