Going to use clay for the first time.....

[Renthorin]

I have a small brick of clay from Meguier's I believe. I lost the packageing a while ago but I think it said to lubricate it with something like Zaino spray or Eagle One spray....you know.... the clear detail stuff.

Any advice for me? Any do's and don't's?

Can I hurt anything?

What is the main benefit of clay?

Thanks for any advice.

I have used the clay with meguires quick detail spray and had good results, it will not help the shine of a car, just the feel, removes overspray and other stuck on the paint items, but do wash the car first to remove as much dirt first so you don't rub it into the paint, and don't push on the clay hard, just let it glide across the paint, also do in small areas then wipe it dry with a microfiber towel.

thanks
Bill
