If you could take a picture of slick, silky smooth, satiny, to the touch.
I would.... just got finished with mothers clay bar kit. WOW followed up with Meguiars Gold Carnauba Wax.....good news is no one will lean on the car.....they'll just slide right off. If you haven't done it yet, get off yur duff and gitter dun!
This is kinda like the Harley thing......If I have to explain it, you probably wouldn't get it anyway. Something you just have to experience. I will now do every vehicle I own...........

Right on , I've read tons about this clay bar and it seems real cool.
There's also a Youtube vid out there to watch and it seems awesome.

Please excuse the shop.....

This is like trying to take pictures of Pikes Peak......you just can't really capture it, you just have to see it in person... for yourself....
