My girlfriend and I just spent 3 and a half hours cleaning my GTP. It was very dirty. I washed it. Then tried that liquid clay bar. It didnt do a bad job then i put on a fresh coat of Gold Class to set it off. I will say this, regular clay bar still is better because its alot easy to get bugs and dirt marks out but with some pressure the liquid clay bar will take most of it out. I do also have 1 picture of the formula which i only just washed yesterday. It was waxed 2 weeks ago and still has a nice shine.but let me no what u think.

lookin good  
i think if you hit it with a rotary buffer after the clay bar with some light compound (meguiars #80 speed glaze) then wax it’d shine even more. it would give it that wet look  
but looks good none the less

A. You can find regular claybar at Pep Boys (Mothers or Meguiar’s). Doesn’t really matter the brand, they will do the same thing.

B. Afraid of a rotary? Get a Porter Cable DA polisher (Model 7424 oe 7336), and Edge Pads. Couldnt burn through if you wanted to, but improve the look.

It’s a slower RPM, and the pad doesn’t spin. The bolt it’s attatched to does. The Edge pads a just high quality.

I have the PC 7424 and love it, speed is adjustable, and like Zack said, you couldn’t burn thru if you tried. Very easy to use.

Nice job BTW!

The rotary is really easy and safe if you are careful. Unless you have very sharp pointed fenders (ex C3 vette) that you could burn through just by looking at them, you will be ok.Just take your time. I have both the PC dual action and a makita rotary. The rotary does a much better job, especially at bringing back an oxidized finish. They key to the rotary is to tap the lightly trigger like revving a car, then using little compound. A great site for learning info about the rotary is [meguiars.com](http://meguiars.com)  
They have excellent tech help and also great advice.
