What Is an Auto Detailing Clay Bar?

Auto Detailing Clay Bar is a synthetic plastic putty that physically removes contaminants from the surface of your car’s paintwork, glass, fiberglass, and metal. They are manufactured from a mix of a variety of organic and inorganic substances for auto detailing. So car clay bar is usually much more elastic, especially in the case of IPELY Magic Clay Bar. Elasticity gives clay bar excellent durability as it can be wound, flattened, crushed and stretched over and over again.
Auto clay bar is designed to stand up to the kind of contaminants, such as industrial fallout, rail dust, and brake dust. So the car clay bar can be used to cut contaminants from auto finishes. These contaminants stick to the paint finishes, glass, and metal. and remain stuck to the vehicle by rain, car washing, and even polishing. The only way to get rid of these contaminants is – you guessed it – IPELY Auto Detailing Clay.

Why Should You Use Car Detailing Clay Bar?

When the car leaves the paint and body shop, its surface is in its original condition and is completely free of debris and contaminants. Unfortunately, tiny pollutants gradually accumulate on the paint afterward, usually not visible to the naked eye. Washing and waxing the car will obviously improve its appearance but if your car feels rough and "dirty" even after a full car wash. The rough feeling is contamination, the settlement of the industry, and environmental pollution.

If you don’t remove these contaminants, they could:

    1. Prevent fresh wax from sticking to the paint, accelerates the wear of the wax coating, and reduces the brightness.

    2. Cause premature oxidation, corrosion, and drop out of the paint.

    3. Block light from reflecting the transparent coating gives the coating a dull and soft shine.

    4. Pull out with a dry towel and physically scrape the surface every time you wipe.

So if you want a perfect, completely clean appearance, and stay for a long time. You will need to remove contaminants that ordinary soap and water cannot remove. Use the magic clay bar without causing more damage.  

When Should You Use Auto Detailing Clay Bar?

An empirical rule of detailed design is to sterilize the surface with a clay bar before applying a new wax coating or polishing the exterior paint. These foreign matters prevent wax from sticking to the paint, make the paint last longer and not brighten. Grinding with coarse contaminants will cause more damage and scratches as they penetrate deeper into the paint and clog and damage the expensive polishing pad. Protect your work so that it feels as long as possible after using clay bars.

Generally, the detailers use clay bars once or twice a year to restore the smoothness of exterior paint of the car. A smooth surface is a sign of a professional job, and because it makes the car look brand new. But after washing the car, If it is rough, you need to use clay bars to remove the contamination.

Even brand-new cars need to use clay bars to remove pollution. Find a brand new car at a dealer: all its rough feel comes from contaminated air sitting outside, or brake dust and rail dust falling to the surface during factory shipment.

How To Use Car Detailing Clay Bar:

An auto detailing clay bar isn't difficult to use, but to make its use more effective and to prevent possibly scratching your car's finish. You should follow these steps:

  1. Wash and dry your vehicle well to remove loose dirt and debris.
  2. Mist a small area generously with Lubricant,  no bigger than 4 square feet.
  3. Gently glide the detailing clay bar back and forth across the wet area of your paint. The clay bar will grab the surface at first. This grabbing indicates that the clay is removing contamination from the paint. Continue rubbing gently until the clay glides freely. When it glides freely, the paint is clean.
  4. Wipe the completed area with a microfiber towel. Now the paint should be as smooth as glass. If it’s not, repeat the process.
  5. Inspect your auto clay bar before moving to the next section. Keep the clay lubricated and expose a clean surface. If it appears soiled, fold it and use a clean portion for the next section. If the detailing clay bar becomes completely soiled, discard it and continue with a fresh new piece.
  6. Continue these steps for the entire exterior surface. This car clay bar does a perfect job on Paintwork, Glass, Chrome, Plastics, and Metals too.

Tips After Using An Auto Detailing Clay Bar

Maintain Your Cleaning Surface:

After decontaminating the surface of the vehicle with an auto clay bar, it should feel smooth as glass. It means there is nothing between the paintwork and your fingertips, and the surface is completely clean. Then you must fill the pores of the paintwork with a wax or sealant to block out pollution, contaminants, water, and harsh UV light that stick to and damage the paintwork over time. It is time to polish and wax the paint to remove swirls and scratches.
