 ==== ====How To Wax Your Car. Click on the link Belowhttp://cardetailingphoenix.com/blog ==== ====Ever find yourself after you have just washed your car, wondering what happened to the paint jobyou remember it having when you first bought it? Cars, like faces, become corroded withenvironmental things and need the extra pampering every now and then. There are many ways torestore the paint on your car. The one I recommend is using clay bar system. It has been used bycar care product companies for about a decade but only hit consumer markets approximately 5years ago. While it does remove contaminants from your car, it does not take the place of scratchremoval, polishing or color sanding. Depending on the age of your car and how contaminated it is will prove to be how long the claybar system will take. If it is a newer car that you are restoring the paint on, it may take only a fewhours. If you are working on restoring an older car, it could take several hours and possibly even aday or so to complete. The older the car paint and oxidation of the paint, the more contaminants itwill have on it to be removed. You must begin, of course, with washing and waxing your car. Make sure to use a cleaner that hasbeen formulated automotive finishes. When these are completed, you will begin the refinishing.With the clay bar system, you receive the bar along with lubricant. Begin by putting some lubricanton about a two or three foot portion of the vehicle. Do not use water in place of the lubricant as itcannot protect against paint damage. Continue by rubbing the clay bar over the section with lightpressure. Go back and forth over the lubricated section making sure to overlap each stroke as you go. Itmay sound rough at first as it begins to remove the contaminants but as you continue, it will getsmoother. If necessary, reapply the lubricant as the area needs to be saturated as you rub with theclay bar. Your horizontal areas will take more time as they collect the largest amounts of the contaminants.When you have finished using the clay bar on an area, be sure to dry the area with a clean, softterry cloth. Now that you have finished removing the contaminants and making your paint take onthat soft-to-the-touch feel, you must apply a protective coat of sealer of wax. Some kits includetheir own preferred wax but you can use whatever product you prefer. Spray texture is a way to help protect your vehicle from the contaminants that attach themselvesand create that rough feel. It's a sealer that is most often used on the high contaminant problemareas such as the hood, fenders and bumper. It protects against bugs, rocks, weather andeveryday road debris. It is not something quite as easy as the clay bar system. The sealer has tobe prepared and used in such a way that it blends in with your paint. There is a special gun to beused with it and you should practice with the sealer on other surfaces before you take it to yourvehicle. It must be done just right in order to adhere properly to the vehicle as well as flow
