attn clay bar users:

I was going to try to use a soap/water mix instead of the bottle of quick detailer packaged with the clay bar. do I wipe the soap/water mix off (similar to quick detailer) or do I rinse the mix off?

you rinse off the whole car when you are done claying...then you re soap the whole car down to remove the excess clay you missed...then hose and dry.

the spray lube is just some quick detailer stuff. Nothing major. For clay bar use, just like waxing the car. But spry the liquid, rub the bar move onto another section. Wash the car and your done.
