Default Clay Bared the Escort

After seeing a few threads on the clay thought I would have a go!

Well got up at 6.30 this morning and started the clean on the escort! She had a good wax last year but had a few trips fishing over the winter so needed a clean! Anyway pics below (off my phone). This is the first time i have used a clay bar and went for the meguairs kit, you get a cloth, spary, 2 clay bars and spray wax for £25 which is good IMO. I didnt use the spray wax as i use the gold meguairs liquid wax.

Anyway pic before i started



Washed a then dried



Then went over with the clay bar and wiped off



End result after a layer of wax













Think she looks good for 21 years!
