from my experience, i tried it the other weekend, and amazing! the claybar is great at removing ANYTHING on a car. to test the outcome rub your backhand on the paint before, do the clay works, wax, then rub again! and you will *feel the difference*. i did portions throught time to not wear myself out. i know you are not supposed to let the clay rub on dry paint, hint, the detailer is for!

I pay it because I A) have no time, B) am lazy, C) the car always looks NEW, and D) it's a business expense come tax time.

My 02 still looks like fresh off the lot. Inside and out. It even still has a little of that new car smell.... mmmmmmmm.... :p

Always amazed at how smooth the car is after clay and wax. It's almost sensual... :lol:

Guess thats just the difference.
NO ONE, and I mean no one but me touches my civic:evil:
